First thing I notice is that you're missing quotes around your string:

try this:
<cfoutput query="codecoll_results">

   <p>
   Summary: #ReplaceNoCase(Summary,form.criteria,'<span 
style="background-color:FFFF00">#form.criteria#</span>',all)#</p>

</cfoutput>

What is the problem you are getting.. an error? Or is it just not
displaying the highlighted text correctly?

bye
