David,

Just a few days ago, I got the same error message from a client.
since the error occured in the follwing line,

IF MainHwnd() = GetActiveWindow()

where mainhwnd() is the foxtools function and the GetActiveWindow() function is an API call, I figured that it would have to do with foxtools. We've also determined that it is occurring on occasion. Until now we have not determined the cause of it, but my first bet is to check the HP printer drivers.

Please let me know if you solved the problem, and more importantly: how ?

Walter,
