Hello,

I just tried to export the report as HTML and while its exporting, its  
not being parsed as HTML code in my browser.  I tried with several  
browsers to no avail.

This is what I get when opening the HTML file with my browser:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 //EN"  
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
  <html>
  <head>
  <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
  <title>C1-1: General Insurance Registry (incomp. w/o WP reports)</title>
  <style type="text/css">
  <!--

Any trick to make this work?  By the way printing the report to PDF  
produces a file that exceeds 10Mb (42 pages of transactions)....
