It would depend on which file is causing the problem... It certainly would

be worth a try. If the EXE or any of the REPORT*.APP files is on the

network it also would help to copy those to a local drive. Same is true for

any DLL or OCX you use.

Another issue that causes crashes mostly when printing, but usually

wouldn't result in a C6 exception, is the floating point problem. 15 years

ago HP printers where notoriously famous for changing the exception

handling for the floating point unit so that a division by zero caused a

crash instead of returning NaN (not a number).

To work around this, we have

DECLARE _fpreset in MSVCR71.DLL

_fpreset()

everywhere in our program where we access a printer driver. So before and

after printing a report, selecting a printer, listing printers, etc.
