  3. Select the macro and click Edit.
  4. In the Presets tab select Custom transformation and click Next.

  5. Enter the following SQL query:

    SELECT *,
FIND_VIEW(T1.'Issue', "h3") AS 'Issue HTML',
FIND_VIEW(T1.'Comment', "strong", true) AS 'Comment HTML'
FROM T1

  6. Save the macro and the page.
