Have you downloaded the VFP 7 updates?
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vfoxpro/downloads/updates.asp

I don't know if they are related to this problem you are having, but if you don't have them you may want to check them out.

>There is never any problems printing a hard copy. Only the preview function. And it's not even every time. I can preview a report 10 times (exactly the same data). 8 times I get the problem. 4 times I get it on the second page, 2 times on the third page or something like that. And the reports hasn't changed on bit since VFP6 where they worked without any problem...

>>>1. Zooming in and out the preview report totally crashes VFP with a Fatal error: Exception code: C0000005, 4 times out of 10. Unbelivable, never happend before...
>>>
>>>2. Navigating with next, previous, last, first page in preview report gives the error message: Variable 'tablefield' is not found, very often. But never on the first page. It always appear when you click next or last. Why? If I close the report and preview it again it works almost every time... And if I print the report directly to the printer, no problems at all.

>>>Has anyone else experience the same problem? I have my application installed on about 15 computers and they all have the same problem, so it cannot really be a hardware issue.

>>>The application was created in VFP6, and all preview reports runned just fine there. But after the upgrade to VFP7, it's terrible.
>>
>>I don't think there were any changes to the report writer in VFP7 and I am not having the same experience as you.
>>
>>I would definitely suspect something in the data you are sending to the report. Look closely at the error message you are getting and then examine all of the 'print when' clauses etc.
>>
>>Do you get the same errors when you attempt to print hard copy?
