Virtual printing probs and Money

Hi.

Is this an XP or a Vista/VPC problem, I wonder?

Have Vista on a new PC.

Setup Virtual PC for XP use.

When in XP mode, I can see my Canon AIO and am told it is [Ready] in printer properties, but I can't print.

I print fine when out of VPC mode and running Vista as normal.

Do I need to reinstall my Canon driver while running XP under VPC?

Also, I use Microsft Money 2004 on my old PC with XP.

Have installed on Vista PC and can see my files, but when I try to open one, I'm told that Money 2005 can't find or open the file because I don't have Administrator Permission (yet I only have my own Windows account and am set up as Administrator). I've also checked the path to which the message reports that it possibly cannot find the file in and the file is exactly where it is seeking for it.

Where did the 2005 come from?:rolleyes:

I'm assuming your Canon AIO is networked. The driver needs to be installed on the VPC just as it has to be installed on Vista. Treat the VPC just as you would another computer installed on the network.

Thanks/ I suspected i might, but have lost the driver and didn't want to download from Canon's website if it would be of no use.

Does anyone have any ideas regarding the MS Money 2004 (which seems to have magically upgraded itself to 2005 (although I suspect Money 2005 and on would be backwardly compatible with 2004 files/backups in any event).

Thanks again.
