    Recently a small "Write to File" pop-up (dialog box) started to appear on my screen and every attempt to get rid of it has been i vain. When I close it it appears again after 10-15 sec. I have no clue what this is. Can somebody help me to get rid of this?

    Thanks

    Sigurvin

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply. However, it seems that I have managed to solve the problem. I found that there were several documents in a printing que for one of my printers and as the printer was not active the program was trying to print to a file. Deleting the documents in the que solved the mystery.

    Well hello sirgurvin,

    Yah, I thought you may have solved this or you would have returned to the board sooner. I'm glad you have updated your post with problem and fix, once you pinned it down. Unsolved mysteries, drive me crazy.

    A big thank you for returning and sharing the results and your most welcome.

    If you would, please:
    Could you mark this post as resolved?
