I am wanting to know if there is a way that I can pull something from a sql database and format the result as an html link. Not sure if this is possible.
Thanks in advance.

It is one of the main things PHP is used for. What kind of database are you using? Have you looked at
http://php.net in the documentation for your database adapter (also see PDO). There are many examples there.

I am using an mssql database and connecting from an apache server running php5.

Very possible, but you will need to do some extra configuring to get the MSSQL functions working. Check out the
documentation.
