Enhanced Formatting - Inline HTML : Oracle Reports 10g

New formatting: This release greatly enhances the formatting capabilities, for example,
the capability to use inline HTML tags, user-defined style sheets, and so on.

Oracle Reports allows a variety of fonts, styles, and colors for text objects in your
reports. If you need to apply different formatting to different words within a text field,
you can use HTML tags for formatting and set the object's Contains HTML Tags
property to Yes. However, until now, such formatting could be seen only in HTML
and HTMLCSS output.
