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
Jamie

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
