When a database is filled with lots of records (let's say, 70 Gb), it can take a long time for printing a report.

May be a solution to this is building a "Report Server". A stand-alone application that reads a table where records are inserted when a user prints a record. When a record is found, this "Report Server" is printing the report.

So, as big advantage, the user does not have to wait until his fat client has composed the record to print the report, but just has to insert the record with the needed parameters in one table.

The "Report Server" reads the record, and prints the report.

If somebody has remarks about this, please tell me. Bad idea? Experience doing a similar thing? Tips and tricks for developing this? Please let me know!
