Html Tags In Excel Sheet S’abonner

Hi, I am not sure if I am going about this the right way - but...

I am trying to populate a label using fields from an excel spreadsheet. Because of the nature of the data - the spreadsheet contains html tags (eg. <i>, <sub>, <sup> etc) and html encoding (eg. &deg;, &alpha etc).

I had hoped that the html container would translate these correctly as they are correctly rendered on my website.

Should I be going about this a different way?

thanks for your help.

Steve
