text into a tabstopped field

Hello.  I need to put a DB query result into a RunRev stack field which 
has tabstops at 62,123,282,467,606,822,911.
I don't wish to just put the query result into the field as this 
overwrites all current information in that field.

I just want to update portions of this field.  For example I would like 
to put "some information" in field "SomeField" between its first and 
second tabstops.

In some cases the query result would be a single number while in other 
cases it could be a short phrase.

I am stumped.

Regards
