No, Mogens. I did not even asked to be one. I cannot be. I have not the time and the will to do such a thing. Besides, my PC is an old one, 200 Mhz mmx. Time ago I lost my desire to keep pace with this race of speedier pc, each week. And I do not have the need to be a tester as much as I am rich enough to buy my own programs when they are available, neither I have the ilusion I can be "part" of a glamourous software team because I found a glitch in the gui or so. I was just remembering what factuaklkly happens each time we get a new program. Or you have another experience? Maybe is my bad luck :-( fERNANDO
