Hi there! I recently acquired a Palm and have been using this great piece of software (Progect/Pdesk tandem). So I would like to make a contribution to the general effort, by translating to Spanish the resources (I notice there is French and Portuguese but no Spanish option). I have written separately to Rick so he can send me the files. saludos! Victor Kane Buenos Aires, Argentina --- [email protected] wrote: > ------------------------ Yahoo!
