Re: security block is missing

Jim,

Have you changed ANYTHING about your printer setup lately?  Usually
these messages come when the printer cable is unplugged, or sometimes
when plugged into a printer which is turned off.  The message seems to
be related to the termination of the printer cable.  I keep my printer
cable plugged into a switch box, which connects four computers to one
printer.  

If I remove the cable from the box, as I do when I use laplink to
transfer data for backup, I get this error message if I bring up
TradeStation.  Once I plug the printer cable into the switchbox, the
message goes away.

It is a pain in the neck.
