html in drw

[JopOSopHop]

hi, can't find any info on this, not sure if it can happen. I am displaying
content on a website that is retrieved from an access database using the drw.
is it possible to store html in the access database and display the desired
results on the page, or am i limited to straight text and images?

Yes, but probably not w/ the DRW
You will need to hand code the ASP to encode the fields as html

Yes, you can store HTML in database fields. It's very useful when you want
to control the formatting of the results, and it also allows you to make
hyperlinks clickable; see

example.
