Suppose your database already has XML tags included in the values of a column.
In the first instance below, the XML tag <DESTINATION>
represents
a user-specified parameter called &p_dest
. If the Contains
XML Tags property is set to Yes, Reports Builder will recognize <DESTINATION>
as an XML tag, interpret &p_dest
as a changing value according
to user specifications, and substitute a unique value in the place of &p_dest
in XML output. This is true for any value in a column with the syntax of &[report_object_name]
.
Variable column value with XML tag:
Original Text String in column: |
|
Contains XML Tags = Yes: |
|
Contains XML Tags = No: |
|
Non-variable column value with XML tag:
Original Text String in column: |
|
Contains XML Tags = Yes: |
|
Contains XML Tags = No: |
