Is there a 'Before Report Trigger'?

[papalpha]

I am running Crystal Reports against an Oracle database. Is there a way I can have Crystal trigger a procedure in Oracle before it executes the commands to fetch the data for the report?

Perhaps a little more technical information would help in determining a solution.

Other than 'Before' trigger, yuou might want to describe what you are trying to do.

On the surface, it looks like a subreport could be placed in the Report header to "trigger" some type of action for the rest of the report.

No.

Rather than these one line posts wherein you're trying to test theories, please take a little time and post what you have and the intent:

Crystal version
Database/connectivity used
Example data
Expected output
How the report is generated (code, ASP, directly from Crystal)?

We generate dynamic SQL and use another SP to run it within CR 10, so some advanced functionality is available.
