What do you mean "convert to binary"?  A number is almost never stored in
decimal; any number stored in an Integer or similar type is stored in
binary.  Just about the only way that "convert decimal to binary" makes
sense is if the number is in ASCII (text) format in decimal, and you want to
convert it to text format in binary.

As for the check boxes, the simplest way is:
  CheckBox0.Checked := MyNumber and (2 shl 0);
  CheckBox1.Checked := MyNumber and (2 shl 1);

  CheckBox7.Checked := MyNumber and (2 shl 7);
