I have a database field value, which is an integer like 0 and 1. Is it possible to convert this integer values to Boolean while loading the data in to a DB Grid. I'm expecting without condition checking, like direct typecasting.

Thanks

I guess that you want to show a database field in DBGrid as a CheckBox. If so, read article by Zarko Gajic. It is about Boolean fields, but you can easily modify the code for your needs.
