Hi, Am using a paradox 9 application over terminal server, mapping local network printers in the terminal server connection (RDP in most cases). All applications print ok, except Paradox. Every time a print is run, paradox will terminate. Anyone any ideas? Many thanks.

Sorry to bump this old topic - but has anyone managed to do this whilst also using the map file tag created in the help file, therefore giving the ability to have context sensitive help.

Does anyone have any experience of using Robohelp with Paradox 9? I've created a CHM (html) help file and created a map file (text file) with the map id's in them. I need to know how the map file is used in Paradox in order to enable the F1 context sensitive help. Many thanks in advance.

Thanks Tony, yes i've uninstalled SP2 now and all is well. It's more of a pain then anything as the auto-update on my laptop keeps trying to download SP2. Plus, the application I work with is a commercial one written using the paradox UI & objectPAL to connect to SQL database. We have...

Such a speedy reply! Thanks very much.

All, Does anyone know how to turn the functionality of automatically rendering text bold when putting an asterix at the start and end? E.g. *Dave* I need to use a barcode font and barcode readers use the * to denote the start and end of a barcode. Thanks in advance.

In my outlook client, i have configured to retrieve mail from my exchange server. I can send/receive without error BUT do not see any mail in my mailbox. My account is configured to deliver mail to my mailbox name. I can send email fine, see it in my sent items etc and all calender views etc...

Is it poss to put an item in the report header, but only to print that header from page 2 onwards. Example being the title of a document. Title appears in report header, but smaller version in italics on all continuation sheets. Looks kind of cr@p to have the page header on page 1 also.

Many thanks - a *super* speedy response too!!
