Ok, I see now that you need an AFX version higher than 7.0. Bummer, I need to save up on some $$. And on that note, if I can be permitted to re-rate this vid: 5 cows.

Thanks.

Hi Guys,

Obviously I don't speak either Spanish or Portuguese, I've asked a friend of mine who knows Spanish to write it down for me.
But it looks that I spoiled it by not reading it correct, so I killed the joke.
Hopefully the tutorial wasn't damaged.
Thanks for your warm feedback, and next time, I will open up with Hebrew, so I'll know it is all good ;-) just kidding of course.
