Richard, I have had a similar experience of not being able to write to the canvas when the Temp folder in Windows was full or there was not enough disk space on the primary drive. Check the contents of the C:\Temp or C:\Windows\Temp or C:\WINNT\Temp folder and make sure your primary drive has enough space. A long shot, but certainly one that caused me problems on older machines with smaller disks as the disks became clogged over time.
For anyone using Crystal Reports, watch for this one too. I have experienced two customer sites where the Temp folder got clogged with more than 65,000 files, but Crystal reported that we were out of concurrent licences.

The report gives an error on first page "Access violation ..."; then it says it cannot write to canvas output. When you try to go to the next page it says "Cannot write Meta file". It never goes to the suceeding pages. I know WinXP really tightened down its security, but this is just a little 3 computer workgroup network with no internet access. Everything is open and shared. Where does QR want to write its temp files? TIA _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
