I use the TableTools plugin with the fnSelectAll and fnUnselectAll. I've only implemented the default functionality (click row to select vs a checkbox) but I imagine you can apply the selected status of any row to checkbox during fnRowCallback.

Thanks once again.

Here is the TableTools example Jim mentioned: http://datatables.net/release-datatables/extras/TableTools/select_multi.html

Failing that - if you want to just check checkboxes, you can use standard jQuery stuff, with fnGetNodes. Something like:

[code]
$('td input', oTable.fnGetNodes()).attr('checked', 'checked');
[/code]
