show report progress

edited July 2001 in General
I have a report including several results from long queries in
variables. I want to show the progress of the report building
process.

I tried priming the variables values prior to report generation
but, of course, the variable are reset at this point.

So now placing the query generation in each variable oncalc
menas a long blank screen until all 25 variables are calculated.
Ideally I want to show a progress bar but during report
generation the form is not visible.

Any ideas?

    I would try to model this by doing the calculations prior to running the
    report. You could store the calc results in a TList, TStringList, or
    array. Then use the JITPipeline to print the results.
