Mike, I left a message in this forum detailing our problem. We originally had 3 copies of SB Pro4 bought from Precision UK. On upgrading to 1.2 we have installed the program on three of our A3000's. The program runs perfectly on 2 of the machines but will NOT run on the third. I have also tried everything I can think of, comparing libs: c: l: devs: etc.. and I am pretty confident that 2 of the machines are virtual duplicates of each other, but still we have no joy. The interesting thing is that this errant third machine will run SBPro 1.0 without any problem at all ! I hope you come up with a cure as this problem can only get worse as more people upgrade. If you would like us to try anything or send you a complete directory listing from the unlucky machine just shout. My other problem which I cannot get resolved is the SET PG command for setting the number of lines printed on the PREFS printer. However I use this command it always returns an 'invalid text parameter' error. This is a real problem for landscape reports. At the moment I have to do an EJECT 26 to get the right number of lines printed per page, the downside of this is that every other page is blank. I was told that 1.2 fixed this problem but I am afraid it dosn't. I would really appreciate some help with this one ! Thanks, Andrew. p.s. I never inferred that SBPro wasn't stable, its perfectly stable, it just won't run on some machines…. :^)
