I need to display check boxes on the report based on a condition...How can I achieve it? I know I can use an image and use the image with a condition...but is there any other way?
Its not prompt..

Looks like webdings character 0x61 is a check mark - you could try using this?

Be aware of caveats involved with using webdings. I've used them successfully for specific purposes in controlled situations.

I'm wondering why you need an alternative approach or what the purpose of this check box is, but the only other thing I could think of would be to use a dummy prompt control set to optional, but prompt controls won't render on PDF or Excel output.

Frankly what is webding? How can I use it?

Webdings is not supporting PDF Version.

You didn't mention anything about PDF in your original post?

If the suggestion doesn't work for you, then it looks like you're back to your original idea of using an image and a condition. Is there a reason you can't use this?
