display checkbox in datagrid for database cols with Y/N values

Hi All,
   I am populating a datagrid from database. Some of the columns in table have Y/N values (varchar(1) ). Instead of displaying Y/N values in datagrid..I want to display checkboxes for these. I am using typed dataset to populate the datagrid. Any suggestions are welcomed.
thx

    The DataGridView (new control in Visual Studio 2005) supports this, but the DataGrid doesn't have anything like this (you would have to create a custom column completly from scratch).

    For the DataGridView you can use a DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn and set the TrueValue and FalseValue to "Y" and "N".
