Hi All,

I am facing problem regarding the way data should be displayed in report cell.
Scenario is -
My list report column displays character string in following fashion-
'abcde AND bcdef AND hgdsg OR jksdgh'

Now my requirement is i want to display same information in following format-
'abcde
AND bcdef
AND hgdsg
OR   jksdgh'

It is same like wrapping text in Excel however wrapping should be done on key words like AND , OR.

Can somebody help to achieve this functionality..?

Thanks in Advance..!!

Hello Cognos Gurus,

Can i assume that this functionality is not possible with cognos report studio.. :'(

This is a good question.

--Did you review or try the "Spacing and Breaking" in the Properties Area?

--Did you review or try the Data Format  - Text settings to see if you can control it that way?

Otherwise you need a way to insert the HTML <BR> between the words to force a break.  However, unless you are able to change the text that advise is fairly useless.  :-)

If you figure it out - please post back.
