Dear Group,

I'm using Access 2003 linked to an SQL Server data table via an ODBC
connection.

On one form I have several check boxes which want data mapped to a
TRUE/FALSE datatype. Is there a direct way to bind a checkbox to a
bit, a binary, or a tinyint? I've only been able to get it to work
with a smallint which is 2 bytes long.

Thanks,
Max

Arg. Access wants to insert -1 for true and 0 for false.
So sorry the type will need to support negative numbers.
