From: Steve Cochran on 22 Jun 2005 19:16 Hi Thomas, Seems your post helped fix the problem. I was running a parallel discussion with him in email suggesting various things and also KB articles and nothing worked. Then he pointed me to this thread he'd started. The registry keys were applicable to stuff going on in ole32.dll, as you can see reading through them. I suggested he just go to Start | Run and type regsvr32 ole32.dll And he's reported to me in email that that fixed it. He also said I should be an MVP. <VBG> cheers, steve "Thomas Ereston" wrote: > In news:7D5EFDFD-3F3D-4FCB-9E5B-97AB972E5CE8(a)microsoft.com, > benedict1 <benedict1(a)discussions.microsoft.com> typed: > > Bear, this is all well and good but I don't know how to put these in > > the Registry.

From: benedict1 on 22 Jun 2005 21:44 Here's the answer folks! Courtesy of Steve Cochrane, MS MVP-- Try going to Start | Run and type regsvr32 ole32.dll See if that makes any difference. In OE make sure under Tools | Options | Maintenance that there is no option checked at the bottom for troubleshooting. Thank you Steve! I hope the hundreds of others bedeviled by this thing find this fix! -- Thank you for your help, benedict1 "PA Bear" wrote: > Try the fix posted by Thomas Ereston in this thread. > > Backup those Registry keys (or the entire Registry) before making any > changes! > http://www.insideoe.com/tips/regedit.htm > -- > ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) > MS MVP-Windows (IE/OE) & Security > > > benedict1 wrote: > > No--the printer drivers are from HP and are the latest they have-April, > > 2004.

I assume it was the first suggestion that worked and the second did not apply. Can you verify that the first suggestion was what fixed it? cheers, steve "benedict1" wrote: > Here's the answer folks!
