Ouch! What version of Windows are you using? I seem to recall that DOS & Windows used to remap an interrupt (divide by zero? overflow?) to be a printer interrupt, so certain fatal exceptions trapped by the hardware would just start printing crap out on the printer inadvertently. I wonder if this is still the case in newer versions of Windows? -- Brett http://www.chapelperilous.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "All we are given is possibilities -- to make ourselves one thing or another." -- Ortega y Gasset ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
