The problem is in FILEINFO. It's ancient code, almost 10 years old;
I haven't looked at it in years. I would NOT expect it to run in
NB, especially under Win NT and later, where FILEINFO has always had
problems. No time to scope it out now, unfortunately. One day,
maybe.

In the meantime, here's another, quick-and-dirty way to get the last
SAve date & time into S/G 50, then print (procedure: force a SAve,
grab date and time, print):
