Installation of old software on new computer

[Larry]

I reinstalled some software from an old computer (which
operated on windows 95, to my new computer which operates
on windows XP. The software is Day-Timer Organizer 98.
This software is no longer made or supported. When I
loaded this on to the new system everything seemed fine
and it appeared to operate satisfactorily. However, when
I tried to print information contained with the print
command I got the following error message

"Unable to locate component. This application has failed
to start because WINSPOLL.dll was not found.
Reinstaallin the application may fix problem."

I would appreciate any assistance available I am a novice
when it comes to computers. I am not familiar with what
WINSPOOL.dll is
