To clear it up: I use this tool over RDC (no admin rights on this PC but RDC is open, hence this odd request)

I was wondering if it where possible to make a version of your great item editor for us people who use 1024X768 resoultion ...the sides of the program get cut off and make it impossible to close the program except by using the task manager ..thanks for listening to my suggestion

I'm afraid any changes at this point is not easily doable. I get requests like this at times. The tool uses screen pixel references, so changing bitmaps or sizes is very hard and would likely break functionality in many ways.

The other question regarding removing bitmaps -since the tool is gui driven, the only way is to reduce the bitmaps to 16 color images - something I won't do.

Sorry, but my time is limited.

You may have to use IE to see the link to download it?

i figured it out, i forgot to do one mysql command...... doh!

Is there going to be a way to get this to work without MySql because i'm running vista, I just want to make items and copy and paste them into someone elses DB from my computer, and i dont have an XP box laying aroudn to do it... George?

No the tools integrate with PEQ schemas and mysql directly and there are no intentions to change this unless we change the schema to another database.
The tools can work with any commercial database, the only difference would be the connection string - so a very easy fix for those that need to run a database off MSSQL, or ORACLE for example.

So I can't do anything on Vista at all

yes you can do it with vista. Im running mine on vista. its just a little more work required because vista is a piece of.........

Tools run on XP all the way thru Win7-64

when editing items for some one elses data base how would i go about exporting the items for them to import into their database?
