Problem with hyperlinks in Excel report

[dtrobert]

 Hi, I am running Jasper 3.7.1 and attempting to embed hyperlinks inside XLS reports.  I can generate an html or PDF report just fine but with XLS, the cells do not contain the links and appear as just plain text. 

 

Has anyone successfully done this?

Thanks

Code:

<textField isStretchWithOverflow="false" pattern="" isBlankWhenNull="true" evaluationTime="Now" hyperlinkType="Reference"  hyperlinkTarget="Self" >					<reportElement						x="25"						y="0"						width="100"						height="15"						forecolor="#000000"						key="DN"/>					<box leftPadding="5" rightPadding="5">					<pen lineWidth="0.75"/>					<topPen lineWidth="0.75"/>					<leftPen lineWidth="0.75"/>					<bottomPen lineWidth="0.75"/>					<rightPen lineWidth="0.75"/></box>					<textElement textAlignment="Left">						<font reportFont="Verdana_Normal" size="8"/>					</textElement>				<textFieldExpression   class="java.lang.String"><![CDATA[$F{directorynumbername}]]></textFieldExpression>						<anchorNameExpression><![CDATA[$F{registrationstate}.intValue() == 2  ? "http://" + $P{csipcip}  + "/clarusipc/infoportal/launchRemoteHands.do?phoneId=" + String.valueOf($P{system}.getSystemId()) +  "_" + $F{devicename} + "&userName=" + $P{userid} + "&password=" + $P{password} : null]]></anchorNameExpression>						<hyperlinkReferenceExpression><![CDATA[$F{registrationstate}.intValue() == 2  ?
