don't laugh - but can you successfully print to a physical printer? BTW, on a vaguely related topic, on one machine we never did solve the 'compact on close' problem either, tried everything finally turned off 'compact on close' and it is ok now (except for not being able to compact on that machine)
i have the feeling that this too is some windows component conflict, but i can't track it down for the record the 'compact on close' problem is: the protel session disappears (quits, vanishes) _sometimes_ (often) at the beginning of the compact process if any other DDBs other that the current one were open with unsaved work, that work is lost a file is left behind *.CMP which i assume is a temp file for the compaction process Dennis Saputelli Brad Velander wrote: > > Jan, > was sure that I had tried with only Protel running yesterday but > tried again right now anyway.
