Binding to checked Property of a Radio Button in a datagrid

Tags: C#
I want to bind the checked property of a few Radio buttons to a database value.  I thought that I had it right, but for some reason, it just isn't working.

You can rule out not getting the data from the data source, because that was tested successfully by adding a label control to the datagrid and using: Text= DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Increase_Decrease").

Can anybody help me?

Thanks,

Greg
