Answer 1

if (dt.Rows[0]["IsActive"].ToString() == "True")
{
     chkAvtive.Checked = true;
}

chkActive is the id of your checkbox. Assuming the checkbox was already in the controls list in the page.

You can add a checkbox to your page using the following code

<input type="checkbox" id="chkActive" runat="server">
