Re: [Gnumed-devel] Ok - I'm up and running - project needed.

Ok will look at login. Also I'm going to start a gmSetupWizard using the 
wxWizard control at some stage.

Regarding the SOAPtextCtrl based wigits for all edit area's I'm conceptually 
in favour of that because of saving screen real-estate, perhaps you and I can 
liase on doing one of them which is simple (eg recalls) and actually 
implementing it.
