Re: MS 6.52 EOD Printing Problems

I too am having problems printing from V 6.52
I installed V6.52 from a new disk and also installed the upgrade from the
equis web site.  I carried out an exploration and printed the results.  the
only thing that printed was the location of the tickers that were selected
by the exploration.

Is there a work around or patch for this?
