UPDATE Possible

[pdbowling]

Hello, Everyone.
I think I know the answer to this, but I don't want to make any assumptions.

Does Crystal Reports have any method of updating dating before displaying reports?

I am pretty sure that it does not. I have an application that launches a crystal report.

What I am seeing is the data changing from before I run the report to after I run the report.

I am almost positive that it is the software making the update and then opening the report, but I just wanted to make double sure.

There a no triggers on the source table, and the Crystal version is 10.0,5.1506, SQL Server 2008.
Thanks all.
Patrick

While there are ways to update data from a report, they have to be specifically configured - as in when you use a stored procedure and it updates the data prior to returning the data set. Crystal itself won't update data.

You can use SQLServer profiler to see what is send to the server and who is sending it.
