In SharePoint I can tee up a binding to an edit field like this

  • 0

In SharePoint I can tee up a binding to an edit field like this below. When the form posts back the changes are automatically persisted to the underlying list item. 

<PublishingWebControls:RichHtmlField ID="Field1" FieldName="MySPListItemFieldName" ...

So this works great for RichHtmlFields, but say I’ve got a Yes/No (boolean) field in the same list item, is there a similar construct to bind that field to a check box control in a similar way?

My goal is to not have to throw down a line of c# to transfer the value of the control to the field, I want it to be automatic like RichHtmlField. It seems like there has to be a straight forward way of doing this since SharePoint does this itself with its internal list item editing page (EditForm.aspx).

    What you’re after is a BooleanField control on your form:

    Just set the FieldName to that of your Yes/No column, should work fine.
