[s-cars] ETKA "E" problem solved. Now is a language problem

[Dave Forgie]

Personally, I would prefer to be called FAQ "king". Even then, only in regard to AudiWorld -  based on the one I started on Christmas Day, 2006:

This will sound stupid but where is this other FAQ you are talking about?  On Audifans or S-cars.org (the latter I know about).

In any event, although my version of ETKA 7 does not have any rolling text on the icons to the right of the banner, I found the one you meant, to the left of the pencil icon.  Yes indeedy do, I now have English text.  Thanks so much. Now that I don't have to translate, I am REALLY am gonna love this version of ETKA.

Darn, the FAQ queen doesn't read my FAQs! Anyway, here's an excerpt  
from the ETKA 7 FAQ I wrote some time ago:

"Once it starts, look for the menu boxes at the right of the banner  
at the top of the screen. The lower left of these looks like a  
scrolling menu, and the rollover text for it says “Liste der  
Funktionen anzeigen”. Click it, the pick the choice “Sprachauswahl”,  
then “Chinesisch” (unless you are a monolingual American like me,  
then you'd pick “Englisch”)."

LOL, HTH.
