doesn't solve my purpose

Sandeep:I don't want to use any static control like the one given in the example mentioned by you. I am aware of this approach. I want to display image using #Eval method of gridview if it is possible.

I don't want any code on rowdatachange or any other event.Any other suggestion for binding a gridview control to [image] datatype directly?

@Abhijit:The approach you are using is used very often but what if I want to display image directly from the database and not from the physical location? Any suggestions?

You may have look into this also, though here I have stored image in physical drive and stored the image path in database.
