If you remove the <cfoutput> section from the DB field you can do something like
<cfoutput>#Evaluate(DE(a))#</cfoutput>
The easier task would be to use a key and search and replace the
string, we run a small newsletter app that allows users to embed
variables in fields by using known keyword such as {datetoday} then we
perform a Replace() on the db field to output the data.
