gridview display image

Have programtically (intentionally) set up a gridview to display data from an XML dataset. Works fine expect when trying to display images in a column using following technique:

        dcol = New DataColumn("AnImage", GetType(ImageField))
        dcol = New DataColumn("AnImageURL", GetType(String))

        drow("AnImage") = New ImageField
        drow("AnImage").DataImageUrlField = "AnImageURL"

        drow("AnImageURL") = "image/picture.jpg"

Column just displays "ImageField". Any thoughts please ?

add a templatefield to your gridview columns.
In this template field add HtmlImage and assign its src the image path.

I see what you mean. Now reluctantly decided to use bound fields setup within design mode.
Thanks
