Admin: Update/modify Preview & add active

[damnedpig]

hi ppl
I want 2 make ya 2 little questions

1) I have added the upc_sku_isbn_install mod to my store... this mod teachs u how to add new fields to the product, like isbn. the thing is that it was a pain in the a... to add 8 new fields... (not attributes) right?
Well, but: when i insert a new product, i must press the PREVIEW button, right? but then, how could i do to preview all those fields too? coz it shows me name, description and price only...

2) Dunno why, but after i add a new product in my admin section, it adds by default INACTIVE... how could i make it to be added active as default?
Same thing happens after i modify / update an article, it becomes inactive and i gotta press the green circle all the time...

thanks a lot m8s for the help.
This catalog is getting better everyday !! thanks 2 ya ppl !
