Thanks David Cousens,

Maybe that was it.  On the original computer where this happened, I
did the following:

1. Switched from my USB keyboard back to my bluetooth keyboard because
the numlock key was acting weird.

2. Ran Windows Update, which installed a cumulative update.

3. Printed a PDF of the PDF of the receipt I was looking at in Adobe
Acrobat while I was trying to enter this transaction, because somehow
every time I opened the original PDF it automatically opened the print
dialog, and that was weird.

Now it works.  I bet it was #2.  No more errors in the Event Viewer.

Thanks?  :-)
