Question about displaying an image among columns in a report

Question

Hi folks,
I've looked at examples that I've come across, but I guess I'm missing something. I have a PL/SQL procedure which returns a sql statement for a report. I want to display an image between two of the columns. I already have the images stored in APEX. Can someone please point me at what I'm doing wrong here?
SELECT id INTO file_id FROM APEX_APPLICATION_FILES
WHERE filename = 'Blue box.jpg';
q:=' select ';
q:=q||'current_status_cd,';
q:=q||'APEX_UTIL.GET_FILE(p_file_id => file_id,p_mime_type => ''image/jpeg'',p_inline => ''YES'') M,';
q:=q||'userid,';
q:=q||'usernum,';
q:=q||'lastname,';
q:=q||'firstname';
q:=q||' from some_table ';
return q;
Thanks very much,
-Adam

Hi Varad, thanks for your reply.
Since posting I tried that too, here is the code I'm using. It always results in a
failed to parse SQL query:
ORA-00936: missing expression
whenever I run the page. Any ideas? Here's the current code. If I remove the line that we're talking about, it runs fine.
q:=' select ';
q:=q||'current_status_cd,';
q:=q||'<img src="#APP_IMAGES#Bluebox.jpg"> image,';
q:=q||'userid,';
q:=q||'usernum,';
q:=q||'lastname,';
q:=q||'firstname';
q:=q||' from some_table ';
Thanks very much,
