When the WP7 beta came out, the sdcorp web site said a 30 day time limit, but when I installed it, the limit turned out to be 15 days--only slightly longer than the download time :^) The version 7 beta looked just like the Win95 version, but the final has quite a somewhat look to it (it works better, however--no errors with ghostscript). Hopefully they'll come out with Quattro Pro one of these days. Bob On Fri, 7 Aug 1998, Joey Hess wrote: The one thing this doesn't mention is it hasa time limit and then it expires.

Hi, you are correct on both accounts the other files are broken down of the big one. Hope this helps Paul On Fri, 7 Aug 1998, Marcelo E.
