Rails - Mar 2006 - Sql Server 2000 booleans not working

I am migrating to sql server 2000 from postgres and I have tried char(1),
int, tinyint and bit datatypes to replace booleans, but without luck. the
1''s and 0''s are stored properly in the db, but checkboxes and
dropdowns are
not being auto-populated in rails. Anyone experience this before?


thanx

Hi.
Use bit.  Watch for NULL in the data.  ActiveRecord maps true/false for the
values.
I''m not sure what you''re after with
"auto-populating"... I thought
everything was hand-coded in Rails.  If you mean scaffolding, scaffolds
don''t know about checkbox.
