Hi there,

    We're having a problem with some applications built with C++ Builder 6.
Apparently, whenever the printer name exceeds 80 characters, certain error
messages appear making it impossible to print to that printer.  Namely -
"there is no default printer selected."  The following link confirms the
problem (in the reply added below), but I have found nothing to suggest a
workaround or fix for this.

I'm not sure exactly where to post this, so if anyone could point me to a
more applicable newsgroup that would also be appreciated.  If there's a fix
available that would be the first choice though.  Thanks.
