You can change several properties, based on the contents of the column, with the properties that start with "Dynamic...". For instance, the background color can be dynamic with something like DynamicBackColor = iif(SomeCondition, rgb(...), rgb(...)).
You can have more than one control in a column - in this case, you can probably have two pictures as controls in the column, and use the DynamicCurrentControl. I didn't try this, though.
