Verify what are the differences for the checking account that is working and one that is not working.

Is it using Check Form #1 (CFN format,...)? Select Form to change it. Form #1 is the best form to use for CFN.

Is the Check # postioned on the check in Row 4 and column 75? Select Change Settings to verify or change it. The check number is needed to be in the correct position to appear in the micr at the bottom of the check.

Does this entity from a short cut on the desktop? If so, is the "Start in" folder same as the "Target" folder for the FN program such as c:\fn? If not then change the start in folder so it is the same.
Note: One way to test this is to start in the entity that does print and then open the data files for the entity that does not print checks (File | Open).

Let us know if this does or does not solve the problem.

Where is FN installed? (C:\fn or C:\program files\fn)?

What is the path name for the data files that is not able to be printed such as C:\fn\sample? Does the path name contain any spaces?

Let's try to see exactly what is happening. Let's change the mmp2lsr.bat file. This will allow us to see the window before it closes.
Edit the mmp2lsr.bat file in the C:\fn folder. (Using windows explorer in the C:\fn folder, right click on the file mmp2lsr.bat and select edit.)

Note: It is always a good idea to first make a backup copy of the file before changing it. (Using Windows explorer, right click on the file, select copy. Then right click and select paste. This will create a file "Copy of mmp2lsr.bat")

Edit the mmp2lsr.bat file to insert two lines.
1) After the first line "@ECHO OFF", press enter to insert a line below it and type
echo on

2) After the line "LSR -%2LSR%1.DES %2LSR%1.CHK", insert a line below it and type
pause
So now the file will look like this:

@ECHO OFF
echo on
REM CFN 3.1
REM MMP2LSR %1 %2
REM %1=account#, %2=data subdirectory
REM print checks
LSR -%2LSR%1.DES %2LSR%1.CHK
pause
REM delete checks printed
IF EXIST %2LSR%1.CHA DEL %2LSR%1.CHA
IF EXIST %2LSR%1.CHK DEL %2LSR%1.CHK
IF EXIST %2LSR%1.CHR DEL %2LSR%1.CHR

Now save the file (File | Save).
Run CFN as normal on the data files with the check printing problem. The window will show what is happening.

What does it show?

To continue, press any key.

To restore mmp2lsr.bat back to the original, either edit it to remove the two lines that were inserted, or copy it back from the "copy of mmp2lsr.bat" (by deleting mmp2lsr.bat and renaming "copy of mmp2lsr.bat" to just "mmp2lsr.bat".) Also reinstalling CFN will install mmp2lsr.bat.

Let us know what is show in the window.

Loading Description File F:\USERS\BLANCA\FNDATA\lawndale03\LSR2.DES

LSR: Error while trying to open Description File: F:\USERS\BLANCA\FNDATA\lawndal
e03\LSR2.DES
Error: No such file or directory

1) Verify that the description file F:\USERS\BLANCA\FNDATA\lawndale03\LSR2.DES
does exist. I think you will find that it does since FN checks for it before it calls CFN.

2) What type of network are you on? Novell?

3) For the other entities that are printing correctly, is the folder name longer than 8 characters, such as "lawndale03"?

4) Try renaming the data folder name "lawndale03" to be 8 characters or less, such as "lawndl03". Also "lawndale.03" might work. Certain networks have a problem with long path names.
