Try using HTMLEditFormat() to escape the special characters (<>):
<CFINPUT name="directions" value="#HTMLEditFormat(Directions)#" type="Text">

Subject: Another Data Display Question
All,
I have a database where the code for a link (<a href="...">Some Text</a>) is
stored in a field, if I want to run a query and have this display in a Text
box, how do I do it? My current code is :
<CFINPUT name="directions" value="#Directions#" type="Text">
and this displays the following
____________________
Directions:|<a href= | Click Here for Directions">

(Sorry for the poor graphical representation, but this is a password
protected section of the site so I can't give a url.)
TIA,
-Kevin
