Inserting an image from a Y value in an Access field

Question

Using ASP/VBscript and Access
I'm making a page that dislays a listing of organisations
(using Repeated Regions) concerned with disabilities. I want to use
images for symbols that indicate whether, for example, an
organisation uses textphones, has wheelchair access, and the like.
I'm using a form to add new records to the database. I want the
form to allow users to select the applicable symbols using
checkboxes. What code will allow the listing page to interpret a Y
value as an image path and ignore a N value.
Thanks

Answer 1

Assuming that you have text fields storing the Y N then on
the output you
have a code block like this
<%
If recordset.fields.item("wheelchair").value = "Y" then
%>
<img src="images/wheelchair.gif">
<%End if%>
However is your field is set to be a Yes/No type then the
best way is to
write the test like this
If recordset.fields.item("wheelchair").value = TRUE then
