How to Disable the Preference and About Box Items

[Eric Chatonet]

Hi Dave,

I agree with you.
But I have to confess that I am always impressed when I build a stack  
on MacOS X (I prefer, I'm more used to) and then transfer it to my PC  
and see that 100% of my code works :-)
Kudos to Runrev!
Most of annoyances come from other things: charsets, fonts spacing  
and appearance, graphic cards speeds, etc.

Best Regards from Paris,
Eric Chatonet.

PS. Be kind to let the reply header in your post: I could have missed  
you were replying to me...
