>wish you ... could be a little more specific
Of course. Apologies. I default to revealing as little information as possible, because, you know, the Internet. :D Besides I don't like to admit we still use this horrible program.
The program is called Exchequer, which is basically a snazzy finance-and-sales user interface grafted on to a split Pervasive RDBMS/Btrieve network-shared flatfile database arrangement. It's written in Delphi. We're on version 6.0.0.1, if memory serves.

>if that program does support printing, surely there has to be options in there just to configure printers. perhaps it works independently and does not rely with the system's global print settings.
I think it uses global settings exclusively. I wrote a virtual printer for it and didn't have to configure it in Exchequer at all. I did have to restart Exchequer to get it to see the new printer, though. As much as I dislike the program, I don't think it's responsible for this "twitching combo box", if I might call it that.
