Stretching the Unique number and Title / Translation

Dear Ant(oine),

I would like to 'stretch' these fields (on the left), like in Excel or whatever.
This so I can make the field name 'nr' readable if translated to 'Film number'

I am working hard on a from scratch Dutch translation from your sample English file, since the existing
one is inaccurate and sloppy, according to humble me.

But I noticed already that Marcel and Harm spend A LOT OF TIME in translating! So no offense meant! Are they from belgium, btw? That
would explain some Dutch treats on language ;-))

If you speak and write Nederlands, please let me know.
That would be nice in conversation...

I am still discovering your program, but one suggestion: make at least three fields (drop-down lists) for actors. So that users won't have to type in Robert DeNiro 20 times, but just select....

Thanks again for wonderful software.
I hope I can contribute...

Groeten,

Roger

Marcel is from Belgium (he is a colleague of my father), but Harm is from Netherlands.
I think that Marcel does not use often dutch programs, that's why some terms may have been translated too literally.
I can read dutch (I understand 50-80%), but I can't write/speak it good enough.

About columns, it will be improved in a future version, but I do not know in which one. I have to replace the list system used to put one that is more flexible.

About the actors, I will try to make something nice to be able to recall other actor names, or at least separate the names and the roles.
But that will be for later, I have lots of things that are more important for me to do before :D
