Does report designer support html tags?

weblike

I try to emmbed attributes in a text field like this:

<<Customer.Name>> </br>
<<Customer.Address>></br>
<<Customer.Account>>, html

but does not work

Jaymer

i have done this for an invoice
for a BILL TO and SHIP TO
sections, side by side

I used a temp field.
before printing the invoice, I ran a process which calcs the 2 "address blocks", this also allows removing of blank lines when a "Address Line 2" line is empty.
after the process, I print the invoice which has 1 field for ShipTo and 1 for BillTo

BUT...
remember when you put a tag in the report writer, that means 1 Open and 1 Close marker:
<<Customer.Name + SystemSettings.CR + Customer.Address + SystemSettings.CR + Customer.Account>>

... where SystemSettings.CR is a 1byte field for CHR(13) carriage return

Jaymer, how did you get the carriage return to stay in the field. I have used that technique in another AwareIM app, but when I tried to add it to another application when I hit Enter on the field in system settings it did not store the CHR(13)?

I just stuff it into a Text Attribute like this...

Incident.IncidentTitleString=Incident.IncidentTitle + '</br>' + Incident.IncidentTitleENG

Which wraps in each Query cell like this... Mongolian on Top, English underneath...

Thank you for your replies.
I'm talking here about Report Designer and having 7 places in the same Report where I have to fill data like this.
Making 7 more columns in mySql is not so good.
