Borlandmm.dll is the one with the shared memory manager in it, which also
implements GetMem (details in the ShareMem unit).  It's extremely unlikely
that the problem is a corrupt borlandmm.dll, so you can probably ignore my
comments there. :-)  It's much more likely that it's a bad print driver or
similar, although it beats me why that would be fixed when you avoided calls
to GetMem.  Something really subtle no doubt.

Still have the code lying around?  Is it short enough to send to the list?
