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!

Hi Ramesh, I suggested this option to the business but they
are not comfortable with this options like every row they
have to double click and see the values......
Do we have any option in Cognos 8 with which we can get
