Default How to Tell When Crystal Reports 10 Report View is Busy in VB6 - 06-04-2007, 10:33 AM

I'm using VB6 with the Crystal Reports 10 ActiveX Report Viewer control.
The problem is that the user can select various reports from a menu, and the
SQL Server database is located 500 miles away in a CoLo. As such, the
reports come up more slowly than they would with a local DB due to nasty
latency.

The problem is if you attempt to switch to a second report before the first
report is fully rendered you get a run-time error. While I didn't see
anything obvious in the properties or events of the Report Viewer, is there
a way to get a status from this control so that if it's still busy rendering
I can simply refuse to accept the input event to bring up another report?

Crystal Documentation beyond the CR10 application itself is a bear to even
locate, let alone find what you need in it.

Thanks!
