Stats:
Windows 10 Pro 64-bits Version 2004 build 19041.572
Never downloaded an SDK
Last copy Of DOCINFO is 8-1999
I didn't know where to put this. Sorry

Trying to find if there is a newer version of DOCINFO.
I have been very sick for the past year and evidently a lot has changed.
I have an old program that prints some data. It has worked for years.
Not so anymore. It is giving an error on DOCINFO.
doci DOCINFO 'sizeof DOCINFO, AppName, NULL, NULL,0'

Thanks for any suggestions.

:)
