Access 2K/X

I need to display values in a report based on the row value that was entered from a combo box on a form. Unfortunately there is no reference table for the values

What I get from the field is 0, 1 or 2. On the report I need to show "Not Eligible", "Eligible", or "Pending" based on the field value. This seemed like a no-brainer until I tried to do it. Can't seem to do a case statement in Access queries, haven't found a way to get around it with IIF. It would be silly to have to show an option group for this and I definitely don't want a combo control on the report

Any other suggestions

Thanks!
 
Try using the choose function:
=Choose([FieldValue]+1,"Not
Eligible", "Eligible", "Pending")
This should do it.
Hope it helps.
