Graphic Files don't print

I have created a printed crash report (for police officers)
using Word and associated forms tools. The VB6 application
draws the report data from an Access DB and inserts it into
the Word form, which is basically a table into which I
place text data, a diagram (.wmf) and two signatures (.bmp).

The form works fine in all previous versions of Word. With
Word 2002 (in XP), if I print more than one report at a
time, the crash reports print without the diagram and
signatures. Printing one report at a time works fine. It
is as if Word 2002 is not waiting for the diagram and
signatures to load before it prints.

Does anyone have any idea about the source of this problem
and how to solve it?

Hi Bill,

In Tools=>Options=>Print do you have the setting to
use background printing turned on or off?
