>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.

I have found that following MS's suggestion of disabling the Numeric Data Processor fixes my issue of freezing with HP drivers. At least in my most basic tests with an HP4000 driver. This suggestion is in Article ID: Q183522. What it doesn't say is what the consequences of doing this are. Anyone know what this will do, or not do??? It sure would be nice if this is a viable solution. I would think that this also means the code Randy Brown suggests should work too. It's in the same article. It didn't work for me, but maybe I missed a SET PRINTER TO somewhere.

Marcus.
