I can give the same assurances about Crystal Reports.
>I assure you, even with Enterprise not in the equation, it can be faster. I'd really test and interview Tech Support before putting the finishing touches on that book of yours! I know it's hard to believe, and if I didn't see it with my own eyes, I'd be dubious too. But at least call Tech and talk to them about it. They suggested it and it did work (and as I said below, not necessarily with Enterprise in the equation).

>FYI, the files I delt with are very wide--many fields--because they're flat. However, I have exprienced the same phenomenon with other clients and their situations (we at CLARC have certified Crystal Reports, Crystal Enterprise, and MCSD's on staff--we're very deep into this--and know what we're talking about as far as this specific issue goes).
