Add ImageIndex to Treeview

As the title states. I need a different type of icon for the different nodes types. at the moment I have this hacky way of achieving that.

for (var x = 0; x <= nodeList.Count - 1; x++)
{
     if (xNode.Attributes["TYPE"].Value == "server.point.AV")
     {
         var tNode2 = new TreeNode(xNode.Attributes["NAME"].Value, AnalogImagesIndex, AnalogImagesIndex);
         inTreeNode.Nodes.Add(tNode2);
         tNode2 = inTreeNode.Nodes[x];
         AddNode(xNode, tNode2);
     }
     else if (xNode.Attributes["TYPE"].Value == "schedule.NSPDigitalSchedule")
     {
         var tNode2 = new TreeNode(xNode.Attributes["NAME"].Value, ScheduleImageIndex, ScheduleImageIndex);
         inTreeNode.Nodes.Add(tNode2);
         tNode2 = inTreeNode.Nodes[x];
         AddNode(xNode, tNode2);
     }
     else if (xNode.Attributes["TYPE"].Value == "server.point.SV")
     {
         var tNode2 = new TreeNode(xNode.Attributes["NAME"].Value, StringImageIndex, StringImageIndex);
         inTreeNode.Nodes.Add(tNode2);
         tNode2 = inTreeNode.Nodes[x];
         AddNode(xNode, tNode2);
     }
     else if (xNode.Attributes["TYPE"].Value.StartsWith("trend"))
     {
         var tNode2 = new TreeNode(xNode.Attributes["NAME"].Value, TrendImageIndex, TrendImageIndex);
         inTreeNode.Nodes.Add(tNode2);
         tNode2 = inTreeNode.Nodes[x];
             AddNode(xNode, tNode2);
         }
    .
    .
    .and so on

I do not want to add the long list of else if's.

The moment you start copy-pasting code and only changing one small thing, it's time to move that code to a method.

private void CreateAndAddNode(WhateverTypeImagesIndexIs imagesIndex, int x)
{
    var tNode2 = new TreeNode(xNode.Attributes["NAME"].Value, imagesIndex, imagesIndex);
    inTreeNode.Nodes.Add(tNode2);
    tNode2 = inTreeNode.Nodes[x];
    AddNode(xNode, tNode2);
}

I'm assuming AnalogImagesIndex etc. all inherit from some base type; that's the one to use as the method's parameter.

Moreover, all of those ifs can be changed to a switch.
