    Unhappy Execute SQL from crystal report when printing

    Hello all. Please help me.

    I have a crystal report.
    I want to execute an Update query when the reports are printed.
    In one of the tables that are a source for the report, i have field called "print_flag".
    When anyone prints a document then i want to change that flag from "N" to "y".
    Please help with this!!

    From searching on web i found that there is a
    "whileprintingrecords" function that we can use. But I dont know how to use an SQL stmt with it
    I put the sql stmt in double inverted commas after the function but it did not work.

    Please help..
