Get count of checked checkboxes

[Timothy]

I have a grid that gets populated from a datasource. The grid consists of appoximately 100 rows and about 20 columns. A vast majority (100s) of these rows are populated with Checkboxes in the cells for each column. I need to be able to display the total # of checked check boxes in the grid.

How can I retrieve the total count of checked checkboxes in a grid on the client side.

Thanks you,
Tim

I guess another way to approach this would be to get a total count of all cells in the datagrid with a value of "1". I need help to figure out how to retrieve this count.

I could not figure out how to do it in a SQL query so I started digging into what can be done within the code.

Thanks,
Tim

Please help me with this. If anyone has any information  that may be useful.

Hello Timothy,

As the best approach is work directly with the data, not with the visual elements, it is better if all the CheckBox-es are bound to Properties and you count the number of "True"/ "False" values.You may get access to all the items of the grid through its Items collection. 
Let me know if you need any further assistance.
