Hi , i am using crystal XI and have generated a report from the data in an SQL database.

This data contains html style tags.
And i am wanting to remove them so they arent on display in the report.

e.g.
<P align=center>some content here </P>

<P><STRONG>some content here</STRONG></P><P><STRONG>

i have been trying to use the replace function to replace any text bewtween these tags, but havent had much luck

so basically anything between < > needs to be removed.

any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
 
Hey, doesnt matter now i just discovered there was a :

Text Interpretation , HTML option and that works fine.

Thanks anyway .
