Hi, Netlanders. Happy New Year to you all. I have a problem on Clipper(Summer 87). I have a Novell network running on 386 clone. Situation is as follows: Problem : Clipper try to open the file LPT2.PRN, instead of initiating the printer device, when it does the following procedure: SET CONSOLE ON SET DEVICE TO SCREEN SET PRINT OFF SET PRINTER TO LPT2 SET CONSOLE OFF SET DEVICE TO PRINT SET PRINT ON where LPT2: is spooled device to network printer which is attached in File server, which is prepaired by SPOOL L=2 P=0 NFF NB TI=5. Same set of programs are running fine on dBase III Plus without any problem including rerouting the print output. If it is helpfull, this is a part of very big program, and calling program is in the external OVERLAY and called routine is in the main program area. If this program runs as these code, it runs fine. But if it is compiled under the complex environment, program aborts in error. Runtime environment is : CONFIG.SYS Files=31 Buffers=25 Fcbs=16,8 SET CLIPPER=V010;R020;F031 Any clue will be very appreciated. Thanks. -- >>>>> Insik Kim InterNet : iskim@crcc.uh.edu >>>>> Cannata Research Computation Center crcc7@jane.uh.edu >>>>> University of Houston, University Park crcc7@menudo.uh.edu >>>>> Houston, TX 77004
