Hm, I'm not sure why you're answering Michael's thread. My guess is that
doing so will only add to the confusion about what your problem really is.
Obviously, you were able to fairly easily mislead the one person who took
the time to read and respond to your original post so I'm guessing that
less than clear email is a habit for you. No matter. Since you seem to be
rather finicky about the information you get in response to your posts asking
for help, I'll see if someone else wants to take to provide you with any
information that will help you debug your problem, given that you've
provided no real information on the problem from your end. If you do
get such a response though, perhaps you'll also want to "commend" them for their efforts too. You'll ingratiate yourself real fast.
Good luck,
