Description Unknown 2002-02-17 19:51:21 UTC 
I am running Windows 98SE.  I have found on both the spreadsheet and word 
processor programs that after removing a printer that had been the default 
printer, I get an error message which states "No default printer found.  Please 
choose a printer and try again." even though there is a new default printer on 
the system.  Moreover, it locks me out of the "printer settings" dialog with 
the same message.

The only way I have found to get around this problem is to create a brand new 
document and then paste the contents of the old document into it.  

PS The specific printer involved is an HP 842C.  I have had some problems with 
one of my computers recently and had to move it from one computer on the 
network to another.
