I have an MVC2 C#. Net web app that is storing data in html format for certain description fields. When displaying the data using SSRS, the data is showing with the excaped html characters…ie.,
<p>&quot;YOU KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TO ASSUME&quot;</p>
So it looks weird in the report. I can do Nested REPLACEs on the text to create the correct output:
"YOU KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TO ASSUME"
But it seems like there should be some kind of built in functinin SQL that would do this.
Any ideas?
Did you Google for “html ssrs”??
I found this page: Displaying HTML content in Reporting Services 2008
Here are the steps:
In the table where I want to display the column, right-click the cell and chose Create Placeholder….
On the General tab (of the new placeholder’s properties), set the value to the required column.
In the Markup type, choose the option for HTML – Interpret HTML tags as styles
