Hello All,

I've run into an interesting problem printing reports. I run low on resources after running REPORT FORM mysummary FOR invdate <= dDate NOCONSOLE TO PRINTER PROMPT PREVIEW. I don't even have to print, just looking at the preview is good enough. I searched the MS KB articles and came up with article Q232660. It is similar to what I'm experiencing, however, I don't print any bitmaps. It's a simple form with lines as the only grphics elements. I also don't need so many iterations - under 50 is enough to do it. Generally i'll be previewing a lot when I'm creating or editing teh layout and contents of a report, and I will get a blue screen after so many previews, or when I attempt to modify a form later on.

I am running VFP6 SP5 on Win98. When my new notebook arrives, some time between the 29th and 31st (if all goes well), I will then be running on Win2k, - SP2 if I can help it.
So far I don't thikn I have experienced this problem with other reports. Just one in particular but I may not have previewed quite as much as this one? or the FOR conditions were different.

Has anybody else experienced anything similar? This puzzles me and is a little annoying because low resoureces really messes with how windows functions. (Basically it stops functioning :-/ )
