Error: Report Text (53): Exception parse error line: 2 column: 199 Unterminated entity ref

Hello guys, I am using report text 

<a href="[DataLocation:A]" style="color: rgb(0,0,0)">[FolderName:A]</a>

DataLocation column hyperlinks the FolderName however the datalocation string contains "&" which causes the error i have tried to replace 

Replace([DataLocation],"&","&amp")

but still getting the same error

Edit:


I have added ; to the amp 

Replace([DataLocation],"&","&amp;")

Its now working but the row did not show the folder name instead it showed the folder name column name

Hi @Ultralightbeam 

 

Can you post a stripped down version of your workflow and the actual and expected output?
