Thanks - I found a solution. For any who wish to be able to easily control the appearance of the "painted" checkbox, reducing it to the proper size (as per the system metrics), as well as draw in XP-Style, here's the link I found - very useful: http://www.shorterpath.com/develop/zonearticles/VisualStyles.asp

By looking at the code in About.Delphi example I would say that you can acomplish this by playing with DrawRect. However, I haven't actually used this code myself, since I use a third party DBGrid component and almost all custom DBGrid components have checkbox for a logical field (and many other nice features). Many of these components are freeware. I use EhLib which is not free, but is not too expansive eather.
