FM Pro 3.0 Crashing?

We have been using FM Pro on our Macs for many years now. We have about 10 computers networked (ethernet), running FM Pro 3.0v5.

Recently, we've been having problems while clicking a "print" button to print an invoice. The button is a simple "change layout and print script." One computer in particular will crash when that button is clicked.

We just got a new iMac to replace the one that was crashing, and it also crashes. It is an intermittent problem and the computer is fine otherwise.

There is no other software running on this new computer (ie other extensions, etc that might interfere). Any ideas?:

First, no matter what update all clients to FMP 3.0v6. Older versions are not Y2K certified.

Then see if it's a file corruption problem: restore an old backup (from way before the problems started) and test to see if it crashes.

If it still crashes, look for different printer drivers. If it still crashes you're probably out of luck. Only thing is to upgrade to FMP 5.5.

BTW how are you sharing the databses between the 10 users: I hope you aren't opening the files from a shared file server! Guarranteed corruption.
