Care to give us a little help here? We cannot see your database,
remember!

Access Reports typically have Textboxes displaying... pure text.
They're not HTML-aware. If the Text or Memo field in your table
contains HTML tags, that's what you'll see - the actual text in your
database field. If you want them to be treated as HTML commands you'll
need to use some other type of control (such as a browser window) to
display them; if you want to strip them out you'll need some possibly
rather snarky Update queries to replace all instances of <...any
text...> substrings with null strings (WITH exceptions of course!)
