Has anyone that uses List & Label had any issues with it since updating to Xbase++ v2.0?

We have started rolling out our application built with Xbase++ v2.0 and we are getting 
problems when List & Label is used to email from the preview window using Outlook 2016. 
Our application goes into a 'not responding' state and has to be closed by task manager.

All the reports we have received at present are from machines with Windows 10 which may or 
may not be a coincidence.

We're almost at the point where we may have to revert our application back to v1.9, which 
would be a shame.

We have always had occasional crashes when using List & Label that show an IDSC error from 
a dllExecuteCall in either LLSETPRINTERINPRINTERFILE() or LLPRINTSTART() but these did not 
seem to be related to emailing in general and I do not think this is related but I thought 
I'd mention it anyway.

I'm using L&L with Xbase++ 2.0 without any problems. Not using the
Fax/email functionality though. No problem reports from customers yet.

Regan,

I think the first thing you should do is read the following article:

https://www.combit.net/en/reporting-tool/forum/t9640/!!-printing-problems-with-list-label-since-mi/ 


The Windows 10 anniversary date that came out last year caused a lot of 
problems with List & Label.  Supposedly, a patch was issued by Microsoft 
last year. You want to ensure that the patches are installed on your 
client's machines.

For most of my customers, List & Label (I'm using version 22) runs as 
expected with no problems with Xbase++ 2.0.  However, I have had a 
handful, less than 10 out of hundreds, that I have had to roll back to 
Xbase++ 1.90, since I haven't been able to figure out what causing the 
printing problems - frequent crashes, documents not printing, etc. 
Installing the Microsoft patches didn't help. Rolling my application 
back to 1.90 seems to be the only thing that fixed the problems.

Evidently there are some environments where XB 2.0 and L&L don't play 
well together.
