adding a hyperlink to a field in a table created from a d/b query (Access)

[Larry Rekow]

I've done this using Frontpage; and I know I've done it in the past
using just ASP. I'm trying to stay away from FP on this site, so....

Can someone tell me what is wrong with this?

<td><font size="2">&nbsp;<%=rs("FILE_NUM")%><a
href="newtest5.asp?blah2"=<%=rs("FILE_NUM") %>>"</a></font></td>

this line loops and the FILE_NUM field is supposed to become a
hyperlink to newtest5.asp

I've googled and searched, and looked for my past code, but can't find
it. I did it once also with a procedure that I modified, but I just
want to do it without the proc.

Thanks if you can help.

You have unnecessary delimiters:
<a href="newtest5.asp?blah2=<%=rs("FILE_NUM") %>></a>
