I have an database that includes an html field that is sent to a pc to be displayed. The html needs to use other fields that are included in the record it is associated with. Since there are possibly hundreds of different ways this html would need to be created to include the fields I am looking for something that could be put into each record that would pull the corresponding information. It would also allow me to change the look and feel if needed after the fact.

Here is an example.

Field Data
Color Red
Size Large
Type Dumpster

HTML output to screen

This is the large Red dumpster.

One last thing. The displays will show one of the records but I will have many different screens showing different records throughout the location.

Any help is appreciated.

When you created this thread, you said that you already have a database, and that it includes "an html field that is sent to a pc to be displayed." Later, you described a program that "looks at the database to find the correct record" and then displays the HTML field.

So, what is this program that looks up the DB record and sends the HTML field?

Whatever program this is, that is what you'll need to update. But you haven't told us enough about that program for us to offer any more substantial advice.
