    Re: Numbers Vanished

    Hi Allen,

    I just tried the update and it told me the expected versions were not
    found. The JET 4 update resulted in an attempt to install and older
    version than what I had already. I only had English and for some
    reason Farsi and Malayian activated as languages. I took off both and
    left just english. However, between all these updates I seem to have
    lost all my printers, including Adobe PDF. It tells me the print
    spooler is not activated.

    I forgot to mention above with Tim that I had created an independent
    test database on the computer itself alone. It was placed in "My
    Documents" and was a simple name, phone number list. I generated a
    form and a report for it using the Wizards. when I tried to run the
    report it also came up empty.

    Ellen, there was a weird problem like this several years ago. Don't quote
    me, but my recollection is that it occurred if you had the French language
    on your computer, but did not have the Arabic font installed -- something
    really odd like that.

    You might start by verifying that you have SP3 for Office 2000 installed:

    The "no digits on my report" problem has been posted about in these
    groups before (been a while though). If I remember correctly it's a
    registry problem.

    Have you tried doing a search of the groups?

      I have tried searching but can't find any to it. It may be an
      inability to narrow the search sufficiently or find the proper
      combination of keywords.
