I have a report that includes a row/col table of data + a couple charts. I bind the data to the report via an ObjectDataSource.
The problem I'm facing is that some of the data needs to be HtmlEncoded prior to display in the ReportViewer but should not be encoded when exported to PDF/XLS/etc. How do I go about doing this? Is there something passed to the ObjectDataSource that will allow me to know what the target is for the returned data?

Hi Rich,
Our declarative data source components are intended to specify declaratively how to retrieve the data for the report. They do not contain any data at all or deal with any flags etc that could help you in identifying an htmlencoded field, they only specify the means how to obtain it (e.g. in the case of ObjectDataSource - by invoking a method/property of a custom business object, etc.).
About your inquiry, check the following forum thread: HtmlEncode detail section.
Kind regards,
