Help! My report opens in my web browser!
Don’t panic. This is because the report was saved in Web Page (HTML) format. This can be easily rectified.
Close the browser window
- In Word click on the File tab (or menu in older versions of Word)
- Choose Open
- Use the file type dropdown menu (just to the right of the file name textbox – it probably is currently set to show All Word Documents) to show All Web Pages
- Find the report .HTML file and click Open
This will have opened the Web Page (HTML) version of the report in Word. Now you can save it as a Word Document:
Click on the File tab (or menu in older versions of Word)
- Choose Save As
- In the Save As Type menu choose Word Document (at the very top)
- Click Save
