How to load all pages of crystal reports at once

Question

I am using CrystalReportViewer in my aspx page.

It is working perfectly, but it load one page at once; when I switch pages within report it does postback to fetch next page data.

Every time when previous/next button is clicked, this loader is displayed.

Is it possible to load all page at initial state, so it won't need to postback and fetch data each time?

These are setting of my Crystalreportsviewer

CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = rd;
CrystalReportViewer1.DisplayToolbar = true;
CrystalReportViewer1.HasToggleGroupTreeButton = false;
CrystalReportViewer1.HasToggleParameterPanelButton = false;
CrystalReportViewer1.HasPageNavigationButtons = true;
CrystalReportViewer1.ToolPanelView = CrystalDecisions.Web.ToolPanelViewType.None;
CrystalReportViewer1.HasGotoPageButton = true;

Use of 'Sessions' should solve your problem. Add the reportdocument object into a session and then use it, it will avoid the postbacks. – Asci

Try to use following:

CrystalReportViewer1.DataBind();
CrystalReportViewer1.SeparatePages = false;

It will remove NEXT/PREVIOUS buttons, it will use a scroll, and it should fetch all pages once.

Thanks @khazratbek, but I have some reports with 30+ pages; it is not convenient; endusers to scroll that long. – Gherardo

@DCODE But that is what they would need to do anyway if they got the report as a PDF – Easement
