I have been unable to print anything from calender. (I use to have no trouble at all) I was advised to reload works but am concerned about losing the data that I have input and would like advise on backing it up. Any words of wisdom and experience will be appreciated.
Thanks for your time!
Can you tell us exactly what happens when you try to print, what operating system you have, what printer you are using and what applications you can print from.
Windows XP, Home Edition version 2002, Service Pack 1
Printer- Epson Stylus C80
When I select print it gives me a little icon that show something going to the printer but then disappears and nothing happens. It's as if the message is not sent to the printer. As I said before it use to work ok. I have no other printing problems with any other applications. I use the print preview and this doesn't even come up, that's what makes me think that it is not going any further than the Works Calender.
Hi...I am having the same problem. According to Microsoft support site, I downloaded and installed wkpr60.exe...but it didn't fix the problem. I am using a Dimension 4100 with Windows ME. Hewlett-Packard deskjet 930C printer. Thanks for any help on this.
if no one can help solve the printing problem maybe someone can help me to back up info in works...most importantly Calendar. I have not tried to reload yet. How do I do this?
I would be hesitant to re-load works suite. According to Microsoft, the problem has something to do w/ the fact that you (and I) are also using Explorer 6.0. Apparently there is something that the Works Calendar doesn't like about 6.0. I don't plan to go back to 5.5. So I guess I am stuck w/ no printing of the calendar until someone comes up w/ "the answer"
When you install the file created by the wkpr60.exe, it installs in the works folder (I believe? It's been a while). You must, also, copy it into the Works "shared" folder.
This utility does fix the problem. There are many references to this in the MS forms as to exactly which folder to copy the file too. Sorry I'm not more specific, but I can't remember the exact instructions. I just know if you do it right, it works.
Hey...good work. I found the wkpr60.dll in the Works program folder and copied it into the shared folder....it updated the old .dll file to the new one...and now I can print my calendar. Thanks. And Happy New Year.
