Printing Hyperlinks in Reports 12c

Darsh_Jul 9 2020 — edited Jul 10 2020

Hello,

I am working on a requirement where I need to display a text paragraph containing a hyper link on a report output that must be generated as a Microsoft Word document.

So, I select RTF as a DESFORMAT parameter.   And the paragraph on the report output looks like following.

"Please go to www.website.com or contact our customer service at the number specified below".

My issue is that the above link "www.website.com" appear as a text when this report opens in Microsoft Word.  I have to press space key nearby the link, so that MS Word recognizes this string as a hyperlink.

How can I configure at the Report builder level so that when the output of above paragraph lands in MS WORD file, it comes in with hyperlink already set?

I tried using "Hyperlink" and "Hyperlink destination" on the layout fields, place holder columns, formula columns but, no success.

The expected output should look like below.

"Please go to www.website.com or contact our customer service at the number specified below".

Thank you

Darsh

Hello,

I have tried the MOS note and this does not work with RTF format.  All, I need is just display the website name (static , no data source) in hyperlink format.

Thanks,

Darsh
