i will add i tried doing a ShellLibrary default earlier in the processing to make sure the singleton was loaded but got the same result.

Looking at the stack, the file that can't be found isn't shell32.dll—that's right where it should be, and indeed probably the VM would not start without it—but rather whatever JCReportManager>>currentReport passed to #shellOpen:. Looks like you maybe saved a temp file, or are managing a directory of files, and want to open it/one of them in the default program so the user can print it? Make sure you're either passing an absolute path, or know what `File workingDirectory` is (and note that open/save dialogs will change it on you) and provide a correct path relative to that. Just sticking with absolute paths is probably best. Have a look at FileLocator for relative-to-absolute translation with an arbitrary starting point. I think there are some class methods on File that can handle simpler cases or be combined to do custom stuff.

If you're still stumped, break out the `ShellLibrary default shellOpen:` call on its own line and put a breakpoint (`self halt`) before it, then you can examine the argument live in the debugger and keep re-executing the shellOpen: call (just as a DoIt) until you figure out what's confusing it.
