Hi,
I need to export a report to HTML page. It is loosing the formating when I export to HTML page. Is that possible to export the report to HTML same as the report look in the preview? I should not loose pictures, textbox back color etc..

Thanks

The HTML and RTF exports for reports will not preserve the output style and formatting because they are constrained by the limitations of the format themselves.
There are two ways of achieving this:

1) Output your report to a Snapshot file, and then install the snapshot viewer to view or print it.

2) Print it to an Adobe PDF file.

If this is for inclusion in a web page, which is why you need it in HTML, then get Ghoscript and GSView32 from print it to a postscript file on disk and use the software to convert it to a JPG or GIF file, which you can then include in your HTML file.
