Hi Simon,
For that, I'd use a template column, some inline code and an iif()
statement. Depending on the value from the field, you reference a different
image.
Here's an example that should get you started.
Let us know if it helps?

hello,
i am displaying a dataset in a datagrid, for one of the values being
displayed it either comes back as a 1 or a 0, which is currently bound
to a column in the datagrid
what i'd like to do is that if the value equals 1, replace that value
with a small icon image. if it equals 0 then have nothing display in
that column.
can this be done? please bear in mind that i'm relatively new to
asp.net. i'm currently using VS2005 and .net 2.0
thank you for any help
source....
in codebehind:
ResultsGrid.DataBind()
in aspx page:
<asp:BoundColumn DataField="PrefPicked" HeaderText="Preference
Selected">
<HeaderStyle ForeColor="#000000"></HeaderStyle>
<ItemStyle CssClass="bodytext"></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn>
