Hi Guru,

There is no direct way to achieve that in SSRS. For a work around please check the below link

Last I checked the <Marquee> HTML tag is not supported in SSRS. There's a lot it does not allow. Blinking text is also not supported. Keep in mind these features wouldn't work in a PDF, XLS, TIFF, or doc even if they did in HTML format.

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your reply, I want that text should be highlighted as blink format when we open the reports, this should be done it on SSRS using HTML Tag. Please provide any solution to do this

Hi Guru,

According to your description, you want to display text as blinking or marquee format, right?

In Reporting Services, we can use a text box to insert HTML-formatted text that we have retrieved from a field in the dataset into a report, however, only those HTML tags below are supported in SSRS, any other HTML markup tags will be ignored during report processing.

  • Hyperlinks: <A HREF>
  • Fonts: <FONT>
  • Header, style and block elements: <H{n}>, <DIV>, <SPAN>,<P>, <DIV>, <LI>, <HN>
  • Text format: <B>, <I>, <U>, <S>
  • List handling: <OL>, <UL>, <LI>

For more information, please refer to this article: Importing HTML into a Report (Report Builder and SSRS).

In your scenario, since there is no existing feature for us to format text blinking or marquee, and <Marquee> HTML tag is not supported in SSRS, we are not able to format text linking or marquee in SSRS currently.

However, for your requirement, you can submit Microsoft a feature request at https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer so that we can try to modify and expand the product features based on your needs.

If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Best regards,
Qiuyun Yu
