That will depend on your query and database structure, but it will be something like

PHP Code:

  <?
// assume database is connected

$select = mysql_query("SELECT url_link, url_name FROM some_table");
while($row = mysq_fetch_assoc($select))
{
echo '<a href="'.$row['url_link'].'">'.$row['url_name'].'</a><br />';
}

// close database connection
?>

Hope that helps, post back if you need elaboration
