spooling report to printer

rbuser

Hi
I have a huge report that runs for 2-3 hours. If I send it to printer, it
spools it while fetching data meaning all the other jobs are held up. Is it
possible to spool it in part so that at least it prints in bits at a time?

Hi Shanil,

There is no automatic feature in ReportBuilder to break apart one print job.
However, ReportBuilder 7.02 and higher introduced the Background Printing
feature enabling you to print a report in a background thread while still
working on your computer. I would suggest downloading a trial copy of the
latest version of ReportBuilder (9.02) from our website and see if this
feature works for your needs.
