A four-digit number-only password is both harder to remember and easier to come upon accidently than a password which allows for letters also. I have no idea which method you are using to get the password, but I doubt that it would be hard to allow for a variable-length password withthe full use of the alphabet. Also, there is a barely audible beep when a key is pressed. It would be nice if the beep was more audible, sicne the user woudl then know for sure that the key press was interceptedby the calculator. Otherwise, I have no bugs to report, and I think it is a great program. ---Falco
