Demo/test mode???????????

Hi,
i am using the paypal checkout module and want to know if there is an easy way to put it into demo mode without using sandbox!!! as i am finding it very difficult. If this is the only way then please could someone tell me how to do it step by step.

Thanks in advance

Nope, there are only 2 modes, sandbox or live. We test live by using a test product with a small price and a separate PayPal account. Then refund the test transactions when finished.

I found it not worth the effort, but what I did to try it was to set up a sellers account and some other buyers accounts (on the PayPal Sandbox site). This is done the same way as setting them up on the live PayPal site. Took a few hours to sort things out and all it did was to convience me that it worked. I did use my email address and had set up a couple of free ones (Netzero and Yahoo). The bank and CC info is not real so you just ad-lib there.

Yes thats using sandbox. And i can't get it to work. I registered, set up an account with a different email. I went into my zen cart admin went
modules-->payment and clicked on the paypal express checkout.

Then i went to try and log in to a paypal account to pay on my site and it said i got the user name or password wrong???!!!!

Please Help
