How do I make needs Static?

Help! I've been searching the forums and online trying to find out how to make my Sims Needs Static. None of the Cheat suggestions seem to work, probably because the instructions are confusing and I don't understand how to use them. I really need this cheat to work because I can't get anything done with my Sim family because their needs keep going to low. They don't have time to raise their skills because they're too busy eating, sleeping, and bathing. They are too tired after the work day to do much of anything.

    1. Ctrl + Shift + C
    2. Type testingcheatsenabled true.
    3. Shift and click on your mailbox.
    4. Disable Need Decay.

    That's weird...
    Also, not totally on-topic, is there any way to decline the needs with my mouse? Like, if I want to kill a Sim quickly, in TS2 and in TS3 I used to click on the hungry need and drag with my mouse until the red zone. Is that possible in TS4?

    It worked! Thanks everyone! Now if I remember right, I need to set cheats to False before I save?

    Do you have to do this every time you play? Thanks!

    At the same time, before you type testingcheats false, shift click on the mailbox again, and pick fill needs (household). Incidentally, your sims will still have the bladder need decay if they drink anything and the hygiene need decay if they exercise.

    Hey, there is great mod (cant remember who by, but i got it on modthesims) that has draggable needs. It also has a quick relationship edit feature too where you can left click on the persons picture and put whatever number you want for their relationships. You can also left click on your money and it goes up 1000. Its a great mod and ive had no trouble at all with it :)

    So it's not possible without mods? Okay, then... Thanks

    that is bad, or good?
    No need disable testingcheats before save or save and exit, but it automatically disable when start a new game or a new sesion of a save

    ... and when go to manage worlds

    Wait, what? Is there something bad about saving with it on? I have a mod that turns it on anytime it's off so that I never have to do it myself...I've been saving with it on since day 1.

    I remember reading in the Sims 3 forums that saving with cheats on can cause problems in your game, like corrupt saved games or something. But that was Sims 3, which was always buggy. I personally never had issues saving with cheats on, at least not that I'd noticed. Anyone have any clarification on this?
