If I read your words correctly, you're insulted because as a C++ developer on a full blown word processor/converter project, users who need a day to download the latest Qt ask you to be compatible with older Qt's so that they don't need to spend a day downloading. Or was your intent a subtle dig that my apps aren't full blown C++ word processor/converters? SteveT
