Leo,  (BTW, beautiful city Exeter)

thanks for the information. As I said before, Kodak Spain says that they do
not develope   8mm anymore ("Standard 8, is literally double-perf 16mm
split down the middle",  which is the one I am trying to make developed). I
asume that Kodak Spain is in contact with other Kodak laboratories in
Europe. That is why I sent this message to the list, hoping that maybe in
USA could get my film developed. I will try to do some research on the ways
you directed me.

Projector is not a problem. I already have a  8 mm one, and I really wanted
to transfer the film to video, but first I have to have it developed.

I appreciate very much the information  you guys already gave me, but I
guess I would need something more.

Thanks to everybody.
;-)
