When I enter a printer in the registry by setting a System Variable MapInfo
becomes un-stable, I am using:-

Windows NT version 4
Novell Netware Client version 4.7
MapInfo version 6

The Options >>> Preferences >>> Printers  is unusable, i.e. clicking on this
option does nothing. Thus I am unable to set a default MapInfo printer, page
size or orientation.

Further to this if I click on File >>> Page Setup  I MapInfo crashes out  as
follows:-

"Floating point exception. Divide by zero"

"The exception Floating point division by zero. (0zc000008e) occured in the
application at location 0x00000008. Click to terminate"

These errors are not a one off but consistently occur, reducing the
functionality and usefullness of MapInfo greatly.


You might suggest I do not set a system variable but then the printer
settings interfere with other applications more fundamental to my users needs
than MapInfo.

Is this a known bug in MapInfo? Any fixes known?
