I am trying to create a report consisting of primarily pictures. I am using Visual Studio 2013 and VB.Net. I have placed the Picture control in the report and I am changing the picture by changing the path via the Graphic Location. I have reduced the image sizes down to 1200 x 900 pixels. I am disposing of the report at the end of the run. However, my problem seems to be that the Picture control stops showing the pictures during the creation of the report. Please see attached screenshot. I am watching memory consumption via Task Manager. Once memory usage gets around 800 MB for the application, then the application will fail with an OutOfMemory Exception. Is there a way to tell Crystal Reports to release the memory for a page once it is no longer being displayed? How do you best handle creating a Catalogue of Pictures using Crystal?
Thanks,
