Calculated column is Blank in export of report created using report studio

Hi,

We are using Cognos Reporting Studio 10.1.1. We have created a report with HTML item column, the values are generated using expression. When we view the report we can see values in all columns. But when we take export in any format, HTML item column is blank. How to fix this?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,

Hello Rhishikesh,

This is working as designed.
HTML items will only appear when you run the report in HTML format.

See

There is also a discussion offering alternative approaches in the following thread of the developerWorks forum:
