Script	CheckBoxField.DataField = strFieldName

strFieldName

String specifying the name of a field in the data source to bind to a CheckBoxField.

The property is read/write with no default value.

Use the DataField property to specify the name of a field from the data source to bind to the CheckBoxField control.

NOTE: Because a check box can display only a selected or an unselected state, a CheckBoxField object can be bound only to a field with a Boolean data type or a string that can be parsed by Parse.

The following example demonstrates how to use the DataField property to specify the name of a field to bind to a CheckBoxField in a DetailsView control.
