HTNL is one solution, but you are probably looking for "imagesource"

Setting the "imagesource" of a char in a field, this char will be 
replaced with that image...

Examples:

set the imagesource of char 1 of fld 1 to 1003  ## the ID of an image

set the imagesource of char 1 of fld 1 to "hotpix"  ### name of an image

set the imagesource of char 1 of fld 1 to "binfile:image.jpg" ## path 
to an imagefile

set the imagesource of char 1 of fld 1 to 
"http://www.myserver.com/a_folder/an_image.gif"

Hope that helps...
