    Default What to do about checkboxes?

    I have a grid with odds and ends of data, some of the fields are true/false
    checkboxes. The users don't like the fact that the checkboxes are
    modifiable even when not in edit mode.

    What does everyone else do about this? Disable it? change it to display
    Yes/No, True/False, or something else? Their own image perhaps?

    Default Re: What to do about checkboxes?

    I usually disable the textboxes so that their 'values' are visible, but not
    modifiable.
