When using CExtGridCellCheckBox with the __EGCS_READ_ONLY style, the cells checkbox is greyed out.
Basically, is it posible to have a read only cell checkbox without them being greyed out?
The only way I can think of is to block the click events on a non read only cell checkbox.
I’m hoping for an easier way.
If there is not can you point me in the right direction.

Thank you.

Sorry I meant to post this on the support forum.

You should create and use a CExtGridCellCheckBox-derived class and implement the CExtGridCell::OnPaintCheck() virtual method in it. Copy and paste the body of the original method except for the following lines at the beginning:

    bool bReadOnly = 
        ( (dwCellStyle&__EGCS_READ_ONLY) != 0 )
            ? true : false;

Replace these lines with:

bool bReadOnly = false
