A text-generation method and system includes receiving data records, such that each data record includes one or more data fields and a field value associated with each data field. A text-string is generated for each data record, such that each text-string includes one or more text-based data descriptors. Each data descriptor includes a field descriptor that defines a specific data field within the data record to which the text-string is related, and a value descriptor that defines the field value associated with the specific data field.
