Greetings All,

I posted earlier but got no response.  I'm hoping that someone can help.

Several years ago I wrote a fairly complicated program for a company to manage inventory and do estimation proposals.

There are a number of reports that need to be printed. Everything works fine in XP, but VISTA has screwed all the printing routines up royally.

Sometimes when printing, the whole system crashes. Sometimes I get a "Revolution Engine for Win32 has stopped working" error message. Sometimes a report will print partially or not at all. Once this happens, then the printer spews out page after page of empty sheets of paper.

The only solution is to quit the program, if it hasn't already quit on its own and start up again.

I have been trying to isolate this problem for over a month, and I am going bonkers.

The problem is the same on HP, Epson, and Canon printers, so I don't think it is an incompatible printer problem. Printing from other applications using VISTA on the same printers works fine.

I have discovered a few things that decrease the frequency of the problem, but offer no final cure.
        1.  Change fields with a borderwidth of 2 to a borderwidth of 1.
2. When opening a stack to print, don't use "open card x of stack XYZ" - instead use "open stack XYZ" and then "go to card x"
        3. Avoid use of the "answer printer" command.

I'm hoping someone can shed some light on my problem.

I am using version 2.8.1.


Thanks,
John Miller
