    Description:
    In order to highlight certain text in the user interface(/V), the we entered HTML tags into the IRD > Presentation Primary > Description field.
    The code displays correctly (that is, the result of the code displays, not the actual HTML) in all but 1 place.
    The effect of the HTML code should be to highlight selected text about the resource and provide live, clickable links.
    CORRECT
    Find Database > Results > Table View
    Find Database > Results > Table View > Database details/"i" click
    Find Database > Results > Table View > Database details/"i" click
    QuickSets > Search > Set Detail/click set name > Database details/"i" click (information display box)
    Search Multiple Databases (= MetaSearch) > Search > Search Type = QuickSets > Database details/"i" click
