CheckBox Declaration in Datatable

Question

What is the code needed to show a checkbox in a column of a declared datatable?

In C#:

    DataTable dt = new DataTable();
    dt.Columns.Add("DeleteFlag");

In ASP:

    <asp:CheckBox ID="MyCheckBox" runat="server" Checked='<%# Bind("DeleteFlag") %>'
                Enabled="False" />

Error:

Specified cast is not valid.

Troubleshooting tips:

When casting from a number, the value must be a number less than infinity
