SYMPTOMS
When you save a file to the same floppy disk from which your file was
opened, and you are using one of the printers and drivers below:
Canon BJC-600, printer driver version 2.0b, 2.0c, 2.0d
Canon BJC-600e, printer driver version 1.0
Canon BJC-4000, printer driver version 1.x
Canon BJC-210, printer driver version 3.01
the following error message may be generated:
Sharing Violation on Drive X.
where X is the floppy drive where the document was opened from.
The sharing violation occurs only when a file is being saved to the
same floppy disk from which it was opened. This error does not occur
when saving to a hard drive or when saving from the A drive to the B
drive or vice versa.
WORKAROUND
With the sharing violation error message on the screen, choose Cancel
and the file will still save.
RESOLUTION
A sharing violation will not occur if you complete the following steps:
- Remove or use the REM command to remark out SHARE.EXE from your
AUTOEXEC.BAT file. See your MS-DOS manual for more information.
- Add VSHARE.386 to the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file.
The line should read as follows:
NOTE: VSHARE.386 must be in the WINDOWS\SYSTEM subdirectory. It
currently ships with Windows for Workgroups 3.11 and Works for
Windows 3.0a and 3.0b.
- Make sure Windows is running in enhanced mode.
