Hi all,

When downloading quiz assessment reports and opening up in Excel as a CSV file, it renders HTML characters that were included in the answer submission (e.g. in the case of Paragraph question types) - even the 'Printable View' report type shows the HTML characters.

Probably something of a long shot, but does anyone know of a simple way of how to remove HTML characters from these downloaded CSV report files or a setting that can be made prior to download that will prevent the HTML formatting coming across?

All the best,
Ian

Hi Ian,

What version of WebCT are you using?

Cheers,

Mike
