Hi Techies, I got an issue so need your advice here.
I have created a report in Report Studio and it's having 2
columns which are having long text as a value (BLOB data
type). Report is displaying entire text items in HTML
format, but when I'm exporting it into EXCEL it's give me
##########. How to correct (wrap) it in Excel? so when end
users they are directly running that report in Excel so
instead of seeing ######### for long text items they should
see the entire text items in those columns. Please advice!
