Hi, it's not a solution for your problem, but it might prevent strange
results in the future.

+
+ In order to write some components (of the Boolean type) it is necessary
+ to make the following thing, e.g.:
+
+      CheckBox2.Checked := False; CheckBox2.Checked := True;
+
+      CheckBox2.Checked := Boolean(RecordDataI[fnFACT_SIN_EX]);

It is better not to cast a boolean like this

       CheckBox2.Checked := RecordDataI[fnFACT_SIN_EX] <> 0;

has the same effect (assumed that RecordDataI contains integers), but now
you are sure CheckBox2.Checked is a "true" boolean.

At least in Delphi casting something like Boolean(1) results to true in some
expressions and to false in other
