Thank you Alex for your response. I will dive into Postgis and see what I can 
flush out.

I can't comment on the specifics of the question only offer an alternative 
method (Of which there are quite a few).

This could be done with Spatialite or Postgis quite easily and if you wrap it 
in Python then you can make a little command line tool (or web) to take the APN 
and return the formatted results.

Prototyping and Verification can easily be done in QGIS.

Enjoy,
Alex
