826.0. "accvio when printing from fileview" by 28713::B_BRADACH () Tue May 23 1989 17:45

    I have a customer running DECwindows 5.1 on a VAXstation 2000.
    He has no problems running fileview directly from his workstation.
    His problem arises when he creates a decterm, sets host either to
    a 6220 or an 8700.  He runs fileview using
     
    	spawn/nowait/input=NL: run sys$system:vue$master
    
    However, when he attempts to print a selected file, he gets an 
    accvio and fileview crashes.  
    
    Any suggestions as to what to look for would be greatly appreciated.
    
    thanks in advance

826.1How many queues?RTL::GRASSSteve GrassTue May 23 1989 18:185
How many forms and queues exist on the system he's attempting to print upon?
There's a known bug when that number exceeds 100.

826.2exceeds 100 - what can be done?28713::B_BRADACHWed May 24 1989 13:139
    My customer has 162 forms and 3 queues set up on the system.  What
    can be done to fix this so it will work for him?  
    
    Thanks for the quick response.  Any further information will be
    greatly appreciated.

826.3Reduce the number of formsR2ME2::OBRYANWhen in doubt, let the user decide.Wed May 24 1989 18:2011

The only workaround for the forms problem is to reduce the number of forms.
The workaround for 'greater than 100 queues' on the system is to define
the DECW$PRINT_xxx logicals for all print formats.    

This has been fixed in a subsequent release.
