Removing Underline from Hyperlinks

Does anyone know how to remove the default format of underline from hyperlinks in Report Studio?  I found out how to do this for drill down reports by editing the appropriate CSS file but could not find a way to do this for standard hyperlinks.

Which "standard hyperlinks" do you have in mind?

Sorry for my lack of clarity. By standard, I meant to say hyperlinks to other web sites or files that are not a COGNOS report.  I realize now that by editing the GlobalReportStyles.css, it did remove the underline from the "hyperlink" objects but not from links that were created using the "HTML Item" object. Since I want each link to open up in a seperate window and the "hyperlink" object does not have a property to open in a new window (having the user right click -- open new window is not an option either), I am using the "HTML Item" object with the <a target="_blank" html code to achieve this.  However there does not appear to be a way to remove the underline from links created with the "HTML Item" object. 

So I am left with either the option of keeping the underlines but allowing the link to open in a seperate window or removing the underline but opening the link in the same window.  Either way the required spec of the report will be compromised.

Reference the same CSS class in your manually constructed HTML Items.
