    Posted: 04 Mar 2008 at 12:00pm
I am a relative Newbie to Crystal Reports and have a question. When I run reports against my SQL database it seems like tons of records are being filtered by my pc. The status bar at the bottom of the screen shows something like 2032 of 2345678 records. Is there a way to get the sorting done on the server so I'm not getting 2345678 records sent to my pc for filtering? I'm looking to speed up the reporting process.
 
The formula that the Select Expert shows is:
{@StartTime} in DateTime (2008, 02, 13, 17, 30, 00) to DateTime (2008, 02, 14, 00, 01, 17) and
{SCDR.Phone} = "2077450315"
 
Thanks,

Yes, there is an option to perform grouping on the server (this will include sorting as well). Go to File > Options and click the Database tab. You can also check to see how your report is setup by going to Report > Performance Information and then click on the Saved Data category.

If you are new to Crystal Reports, you should check out my new book. I cover databases and gives many examples for optimizing them in Chapter 11.
