In ASP.NET application, while using Crystal Reports (using the Report Viewer control), the report is visible (or the data in the report) only after the complete data is bound to the report source. If the data is too huge (spanning 50 or hundreds of pages), the data binding takes a while. Can there be some technique to better the perceived speed by making the first page data visible as the data for the first page is bound? The rest of the data can be bound by the time the user sees the first page.

paginate the sql query for resultset to bind first page only to the report.

I am not sure, one can use paging with crystal reports. Does crystal report bring in the next pages of results from database automatically? If not, how can one automate this? – Kangkan Jul 12 '11 at 10:44
