Hi All,

 

I've strings as "True" & "False". I want to convert to boolean so that I can change the value of check box control.

Hi Shrini,

 

simply compare for equality with a string constant "TRUE" (maybe do some upper- or lowercase conversion before for easier string handling...)!

Best regards,

Hi,

 

Thanks for solution. Can we convert it using TypeCast or by another way?

You cant use type cast. Type cast will change it to boolean no doubt but not to true and false respectively. Gerdw's solution is simple isnt it?

Hello,

 

You could do something as simple as a case structure 🙂 This has a case-insensitive option on the right click menu.
