>>Help!
>>I have an multiuser application in VFP6 in a Novell 4.01 environment running on PCs with Windows 95b installed. Most PCs seem to run the application fine, 3 so far lockup (require power off/on) whenever they go through about three iterations of executing a module which prints a report. They typically lockup at the menu selection and never on the first try. I have reinstalled Windows and the application from the ground up and that has not cured the problem.
>>Any suggestions, anyone?

There are some problems iwth HP printer drivers which may be affecting your app. Do a search in KB articles for _FPRESET(). As article indicates, you should add 2 lines of code after calls which use printer drivers (e.g., REPORT FORM).
