Default Can you use a vlookup to bring in a picture?

I have a form template where in the first column I choose an option from a
drop down box.
Each of these options has a picture.
Is it possible to use eg a vlookup function to bring in the correct picture
based on what I choose in the drop down box, or would I have to copy and
paste these in manually?

Cheers

J.E. McGimpsey has a routine that hides/unhides pictures based on the value of a
cell.
