SYMPTOMS
Works for Windows will display a "Divide by Zero" or an "Integer divide by
zero" error message after you choose Print Preview when all of the
following conditions exist:
- IBM 4029 Accelerator printer driver is selected in Printer Setup.
- Executive Paper Size (7 1/2 X 10 1/2 in) is selected in Printer Setup.
NOTE: This error will not occur when printing the document, only when
previewing it.
WORKAROUND
Use the standard IBM 4029 printer driver (not the Accelerator).
NOTE: If the Divide by Zero Error message appears when you first open Works
immediately after installing it, test this problem by changing to the
Generic/Text only printer driver. If this corrects the problem, either
reinstall the current printer driver or install the newest version of the
current printer driver.
For more information about installing a printer driver, refer to your
"Microsoft Windows User's Guide."
