Hola All,

        This might be a simple question, or not.  I am having some
    annoyance printing from 2 applications in Windows 3.0.  When I 
    try to print from one application I get a the DEVICE CONFLICT
    message telling me another application has control of the LPT1
    device, and asking me if I want this application to take control
    of the device (whick of course I do...).   Is there a work around
    to avoid these conflicts, or make it automatically pass control to 
    the application trying to print.  Shrug.  Any info or insight would
    be appreciated.

Thanks..Bob
