Version 5.4.3.831 and newer have a new Batch object. This object contains some new features and therefore offsets for the propertiesd changed. When a project with the old Active X objects is run, this change in offsets makes the 'hold job' property appear to be on. Also, if a project that uses the new Active X objects is run under an older (pre 5.4.3.831) build there could be simimlar issues.

There are 2 possible solutions: Re-compile the project so it will use the new batch object or if this is not possible install and register the old (pre 5.4.3.831) Active X objects.
