I have a field in my SQL DB that contains HTML code. Is there a way to display the HTML content formatted on a report, instead of seeing the HTML tags (
 <a>, <span>, <div> 
)

Thanks

If the output is HTML, then the tags will be seen as tags and display as HTML layout.
If the output is PDF, then certain tags can be used for formatting by using:
type=report, markup=on,$

in the stylesheet.

If all else fails, there is a little program called phantomjs, that can produce an image of a web page from an HTML file, and you could then just add the image to the report.
