Before Print Question

rbuser

I am planning on using the detail band BeforePrint event in order to
do some final sizing and placement of print components. My question
is this: Once I have computed the size and placement for the first
record, all remaining records will use exactly the same layout, ie,
the before print calculations will be exactly the same for each
record.

Is there much of a performance penalty here, or should I use a flag to
limit the calculations to the first record only?

Thanks.

You'll have to test your scenario and your code--there are too many
variables here. I could write code that wouldn't work and have written code
that works well. There normally wouldn't be much of a penalty (small
percentage).
