Mastering Crystal Reports 9
by Cate McCoy and Gord Maric
Sybex 2003

Underlying all the processing that takes place in Crystal Reports to display or print a report is the concept of evaluation time. Everything takes place in a predetermined order. From section order to field order to page on demand architecture to using evaluation time formulas, the report-processing engine determines the outcome of the hard work you put into the report design. If you take the time to understand the report-processing model, you will find yourself on the top of the pyramid of Crystal Report writers.
