Hi All:

Right now I am facing an issue in crystal 11 that I am not able to
solve. I have a field called formated text in the db. This field is
popuplated using a CuteSoft html with RTF/html tags ex: <div > <
strong> This is bold < /strong >< /div>.

In crystal report that field renders as <div > < strong> This is bold <
/strong >< /div> and not This is bold in bold characters.

Please let me know how I can resolve this issue in crystal 11.

Thanks and regards,

Don P.

Format the field and on the Paragraph Tab, set the Text Interpretation as
HTML Text.

Rob,
I tried it but it did not work; the formatted text gave me
This is bold < /strong >< /div>

Don,
If it works for you then good, otherwise use the following logic:

Create a formula to get the position of second > and add 1 to it using Instr
function

Create another formula and get the position of the second < and add 1 to it
using the funtion Instr. The start position should be the returning position
of the first formula.

Use the Mid function to retrieve the string between the position of first
formula and the second formula.
