    There was a patch to this, but I am not sure if it is still avaiable.
    Contact support and see if they still have it.

    Kalmen,

    Try updating your printer driver to the latest version. There were known
    issues in older versions that have been resolved in the latest release.
    Please upgrade to ReportBuilder 7.02 for Delphi 5. You can download a trial
    version from our website at http://www.digital-metaphors.com. Be sure to
    back up all report files before you test with the new version. If this
    still does not fix it, feel free to send a small working example
    demonstrating the issue in .zip format to support@digital-metaphors.com.

    I have also had this occur when there were no printers set up on that PC.

    Chuck,

    This was a bug in an older version. Try downloading the latest version of
    ReportBuilder 7.02 Trial edtition from our website at
    http://www.digital-metaphors.com. If your customer is not going to use a
    printer for this report, then set the Report.PrinterSetup.PrinterName
    property to 'screen'. This should fix the error.
