Email bursting using RDC

[D1000]

We are using the RDC component to develop a mechanism for distributing reports to X number of users by email.

Each user will receieve only their own subset of data. Is there a more efficient way of gathering this information rather than running the report X times, once for each user with a defined parameter list?

Does the RDC API allow us to run the report once, then filter data and export it to another report several times?

Any examples would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Have you checked out Ido Millet's application 'Visual Cut'? It pretty much does what you're looking to do, and it's very reasonably priced. You can find more info. at

I am familiar with the utility you mentioned but due to certain business requirements we cannot use it.

I don't think that Crystal allows for this.

You'd have to run it for each email recipient, or group by the recipient, export it and then burst it externally.
