Great :-)

But please don't let me distract you too much from your excellent
programming work !

It's really not that big a problem in the example stated below - it looks
like a standard Arial font type.. the shadow is harder to recreate though
and a .psd-file would have solved that, but I think I've got it now ;-)

So the reason for my last post was more to suggest a common policy for
future developed products.

Thanks,
Erik
