One of my report’s text data sources contains some formatting in HTML, just the basic formatting tags such as paragraph, bold, etc.
Can the ReportViewer be made to render the formatted text? If not, can anyone recommend a work-around?

The ReportViewer could not render the HTML formatting natively.
As is mentioned elsewhere on S.O., when it comes to parsing HTML, the Html Agility pack proves to be a great solution. We used it to remove the HTML tags before passing the content over to the ReportViewer.
Easy, free and open source.
