Sometimes, a stored procedure or function is required to use the results of a sample several times. In such cases, we often use temporary tables. However, it is worth considering some advantages and disadvantages of temporary tables. Advantages: Temporary tables are full tables. Therefore, you can create indexes and statistics for them. This can significantly speed up work with them. Disadvantages: Filling in a temporary table associated with the movement of data. Although it is a simple Insert operation, there is still a load on the disks with large amounts of data; There is a risk of increased query execution time. Temporary tables are created in the tempdb database. And the load on this base is substantial.

In FastReport 2018.4 a very interesting feature appeared - duplication and removal of the report pages in preview mode. Let us be clear. We are talking about the pages of already built report. That is, you can select a specific report page and clone it as many times as you want, or delete the selected page. In this case, there will be no effect on the template itself. Even if you have only one page. To get everything back to its original state - simply build the report again. When this function can be useful? For example, if you want to print the report, and any specific pages needed in multiple instances. Or, on the contrary, some of the pages you do not want to print. Yes, in the print settings you can select the desired page number. But you must remember these numbers. It is not very convenient. Using the new function, you add the required pages without having something to remember. Let's see how this wor ...
