Conditional html formatting on a field in a formula 1

tmccoy1 · Mar 12, 2013

This works on static text, but when using an actual field it just prints the field name on the report, bolded and in red. Any suggestions on fixing this in Crystal Reports 2008?

IF {field_code} = 'Y'
THEN
"<html> {field_value} </html>"
ELSE
{field_value}

Thanks in advance.

Try:

IF {field_code} = 'Y'
THEN
"<html> " & {field_value} & " </html>"
ELSE
{field_value}
