ok. I am using xml to populate the data into grid – one of the columns has a html link so that data looks like like this

<a href="somepage.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Link to page</a>

on the grid the link looks fine, however when exported to excel it html encoded as follows and basically I am wanting to show it a link in excel as well.
I can’t seem to post the encoded html code – so attaching the image at the link below

ok. Thank you Will.

When I do as you have mentioned, it just exports as it is with html link – how do I get it to show as a link in excel

Will,

Not sure how this is supposed to work, I updated with the latest from Github, but the excel still does not export as link. Then link is actually in the xml data.
for example:

<a href="somepage.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Link to page</a>

or does it need to use the formatter: link?
