Do not want Less than & greater than

I am trying to create a group email list to be pasted into an email program with this format:
"Bill. Jones" <[email protected]>, "A. Smith" <[email protected]>, etc.

The asp code is using the < > symbols to operate on the email field (string) and the result looks like this:

"Bill Jones" ,A. Smith: , etc.

If I change the field to a date field then the results show <thedate>

I merely want a literal character < or >.

Below is my code:
<% response.write CHR(34) & rs("first") & " " & rs("last") & CHR(34) & "<" & rs("email") & ">" & ", " %>

 

You should be able to use the html character codes.

"< or &lt;" and "> or &gt;"

Try referring to this link.
