Hi,

Everytime I try and preview or print a report, foxpro generates a GPF or similar error within my application. This error occurs even when I try and create a new report in Foxpro. FILE>NEW>REPORT

I've set the memlimit=20,4096,16...

The strange thing is, last week I changed the memlimit to the above values and it 'fixed' the problem.
The machine specs are win98, 256RAM.
Re-started the machine in SAFE MODE, same problem.
Replaced ESL files.
Replaced all reports with my reports from my machine, same problem.
Is there anything else I can try?
 
It's always useful to know which version and update level of FoxPro you are using. (e.g. FP 2.0, FPD 2.5b, FPW 2.6a)

Almost all Report GPF problems can be traced back to "bad" printer or video drivers. First try switching your default printer before trying to create a new report. (e.g. HP Laser to Epson Dot-Matrix) If that doesn't work try switching your screen resolution / color depth. Next try "updating" the printer and/or video drivers - sometimes this may mean downgrading to a lesser featured driver with proven reliability.
