Just got VB ver. 1.0 and am running into problems trying to
ask it to print out programs.  This is with Win3.1.

During the installation, it complained about 'SETUP not being
able to create a program item for VB.'  Whatever that means
it doesn't seem to impede the normal running of VB.  I can
construct, compile, and run VB programs and all is fine except
for printing out the programs.  Every time I ask VB to print
a program, it initiates the Print Manager and then halts with

	Application Error  
	VB Caused a General Protection Fault in Module
	UNIDRV.DLL at 0009:1713

I have tried two different versions of UNIDRV.DLL (92/03/10, and
93/03/26) but that didn't seem to make any difference.

The problem only occur on a 486DX 50MHz system.  A 386SX 25Mhz
system with vitually the same setup has no such problem.  I don't
think it has anything to do with the printer itself.  Just in
case it does, I use an Epson Action Laser II.

Any insight?  Help?  Thanks.
