Hi,

Have a grid where I would like the row content for one field to switch between displaying a file name or displaying an image of a file folder. Basically I am trying to get a simple grid to look a bit more like an explorer view.

It does not have to be fancy as this app calls a document system's api and all they return is either all the document names in a folder or a folder name. I would just like to be able to allow users to see all the documents and then a slightly different image for a folder (folder name but with an image of a folder beside it, most likely in a separate column).

Conceptually, is this going to work? I can set a flag in the table to indicate that the row is an entry for a folder but how do I have it switch between the two? Do I do some sort of IIF() to set .DynamicCurrentControl? and if so, anyone ever do this and it looks good or am I just trying to do something too funky?

Just wanted to ask before I put a lot of time into making it work.

TIA,
Albert
