Hi all,
Has anyone experienced a sporadic problem when printing from ARev that hangs the ARev session.
Version 3.12 on Netware 4.2 and with the NLM
Am not sure about the rest of the specifics but can get details if it will help.
Regards,
Simon

Please explain "sporadic".
If it is what I think it is… Arev will hang with an invisible message Fail Retry Delete if the default LPT1 is not present. I believe that if you type F and enter it will end the 'Hang'.
However to correct the problem do a NET USE from the Dos command prompt and ensure that you have a setting for LPT1 and it is valid.

Thanks, LPT1 should be set - but I will try this and see what the result is,

Well … first opportunity to try it and no luck :o(
Sporadic - as the dictionary definition. It is usually on the same PCs, but then they print more often than some of the others. ARev hangs with a report running from TCL - kill ARev, re-login and run exactly the same and it works fine. And probably will work fine for a few more days before the problem happens again.
LPT1 appeared to be set ok.
Anyone got any other ideas ??
Hopefully,
Simon
