Boundfield display value

Hi

I have a <asp:Boundfield> which returns the value of a datasource field.  Can I have the text display something else depending on
the value of the field ?  Let's say


Field Contents            Display
1                                a
2                                b
3                                c
4                                d
5                                e

Thanks
Peter

Thanks Mark.. I got it both in my Gridview and DetailsView. But one last question, in a GridView, I need to use Cells[0], Cells[1],
Cells[3], etc.... to refer to the cell contents in displayed order. .. What if I add or remove a boundfield later on, I need to
chagne the reference number all over the place.. Can I refer to the Field name directly somehow ?

Regards,
Peter

That's correct.

Not directly. You can do something like this:
