Turning recordset values into hyperlinks

[jwpward]

Hi

I'm sure there's a simple answer, but i'm reading some values from a recordset into a table and one of the fields contains url's:

<td nowrap><font color="#0000FF"size="2"><%=(Recordset1.Fields.Item("URL").Value)%></font></td>

How do i actually display it as a hyperlink? Do i just put <a href""></a> tags around it? If so where? I can't get it to work.

Thanks alot
