Changed the record limit and idle time on the server, but..

[matpj]

when the report finally returns the data I get:

"The maximum amount of time for a script to execute was exceeded. You can change this limit by specifying a new value for the property Server.ScriptTimeout."

with the report data overlayed on top of it, until I flick to the next page and then the text disappears..

has anyone else encountered this?

thanks,
Matt

First I have to always ask myself it it really should be running that long or if I have an error some place in my script.

Assuming it is all good, here is a line that I have used when my long-running CSP scripts time out on me:

<%
Server.ScriptTimeout = 1200 '20 minutes
%>

I don't normally have a need for something to run 20 minutes, but occasionally I do if it is doing lots of hard work. Hope that helps.

as I am new to this and have only done things so far via a browser.
where do I put that bit of script?

the report takes a while to run, as it uses the finance WIP table grouped by project, to find the most recent time booked against each project.
the parameter I have set is a cut-off date which filters the most recent time...
