2) Add a new OCX.Tick trigger based on the control frame of the PSTIMER OCX.
3) Add the following statement to the trigger depending on which version of Crystal Reports is in use:
/* Crystal Reports 9 */
chCtrlFrame:CRViewer9:Refresh().
/* Crystal Reports 10 */
chCtrlFrame:CrystalActiveXReportViewer:Refresh().
