set ASP.NET datagrid image based on SQL table value

I have an ASP.NET datagrid that loads an image. I would like to load
one image if the value in my SQL table is true and another if it is
false. Here is my code.

<%@ Page Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false"
Codebehind="Search.aspx.vb" Inherits="PROJECT.WebForm1"%>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>

<meta name="vs_defaultClientScript" content="VBScript">

</HEAD>
<body MS_POSITIONING="GridLayout">
<form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server">
<asp:DataGrid id="MyGrid" style="Z-INDEX: 101; LEFT: 0px; POSITION:
absolute; TOP: 0px" runat="server"
BorderColor="#DEBA84" BorderStyle="None" BorderWidth="1px"
BackColor="#DEBA84" CellPadding="3"
AutoGenerateColumns="False" CellSpacing="2">
<SelectedItemStyle Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White"

<HeaderStyle Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White"
BackColor="#A55129"></HeaderStyle>
<FooterStyle ForeColor="#8C4510"
BackColor="#F7DFB5"></FooterStyle>
<Columns>
</asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="City" ReadOnly="True" HeaderText="City">
<ItemStyle Width="150px"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn>
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Check or X">
<ItemTemplate>
<img src='\Check.gif'>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
</Columns>
<PagerStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" ForeColor="#8C4510"
Mode="NumericPages"></PagerStyle>
</asp:DataGrid>
</form>
</body>
</HTML>

I want to show the 'Check.gif' if an SQL table value is True or
'x.gif' if it is false.

Thaks for any help, This ASP.NET is kicking my butt.

Hi Rob,

Just jam a little

<IMG src='<%#iif(DataBinder.Eval(Container,
"DataItem.Boolean"),"Check.gif","x.gif") %>'>

in there and you should be okay.

BTW, I had some problems with your markup. My fixed version is below.

Does this help?

BTW, here's the code behind and data source that I used for that example.
"Boolean" is the name of the field as well as the type.

Private Sub Page_Load _
(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles MyBase.Load
MyGrid.DataSource = CreateDataSource()
MyGrid.DataBind()

End Sub
Function CreateDataSource() As DataTable
Dim dt As New DataTable
Dim dr As DataRow
dt.Columns.Add(New DataColumn _
("IntegerValue", GetType(Int32)))
dt.Columns.Add(New DataColumn _
("City", GetType(String)))
dt.Columns.Add(New DataColumn _
("CurrencyValue", GetType(Double)))
dt.Columns.Add(New DataColumn _
("Boolean", GetType(Boolean)))
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To 8
dr = dt.NewRow()
dr(0) = i
dr(1) = "Item " + i.ToString()
dr(2) = 1.23 * (i + 1)
dr(3) = (i = 4)
dt.Rows.Add(dr)
Next i
Return dt
End Function 'CreateDataSource
