Render HTML in Access 2K report

Asked by twintai in Microsoft Access Database, Access Reports, Access Coding/Macros

Tags: , , , ,

Hello All,

I've seen several posts online similar to this question but none have given me the answer I am looking for. I need to create an Access Report that also renders HTML tags that are stored in various fields. We have a form online that uses FCK editor for certain fields to allow users to format their texts - sort of like MS Word. The formats are saved as HTML in each relevant field. We then import the data from the web to a local A2K table to be used to create a report.

A sample of the data stored in one of the fields is as follows. Keep in mind that there are other fields that have similar data.

    Division of Head &amp; Neck Oncology (Since 2008)</li>
    <li>Senior Clinical Researcher, <br />

=============================

Is it all possible to create a report that "renders" the html in each field?

If yes, does anyone know of codes / active x controls that can render the html tags in the report?

NOTE: We do not want to parse out the html tags; there are various examples of how to get raw text by parsing out the html tags. But this is not what we want - we can to keep the formats in the reports.Start Free Trial
