That's why I usually try to point people to the documentations than just give the answer, so next time they know where to start looking. Plus, I usually point it to rather specific place, not something too vague or broad. Some people spent their effort writing (nice) documentations. It's nice and better to use them rather repeating the explanation here. > I > guess you'll remember being in the same boat when you started... I do, and I appreciate more when people give me hints / points to documentation, and explains stuffs to me when I still didn't get it, rather than just give answer in a form 1. do this, 2. do that, etc and me not knowing what all those means. BTW, I am not expert at all. I've just been around for a while :) If the docs don't help, then let us know. RDB -- Reuben D. Budiardja Dept.
