Answer 1

First, make sure that each Checkbox has an ID and that it's got the 'runat="server"' in the tag.

then use the FindControl() function to find it.

For example, if you're looping through all rows in a GridView..

foreach(GridViewRow r in Gridview1.Rows)
{

    object cb = r.FindControl("MyCheckBoxId");
    if(r != null)
    {
      CheckBox chk = (CheckBox)cb;
      bool IsChecked = chk.Checked;
    }

}
