Gerald, Regarding grammar and writing skill (and forgive me because I don't know this) but is it possible there is a language barrier here? The subject line above reminds me of someone for whom English is possibly a second language. I don't know Erick but I certainly don't want to chase people away from the community on the basis of grammar if they already know (at least) one more language than I do :)

How about next time instead of saying "You're an idiot," you either give some good advice or don't respond? That way there's no "waste of everyone else's time" reading posts that aren't helpful. You might also find that you'll get better responses to any questions you have if you're nice. -------------- Normally I do not get involved with this sort of thing but I feel the need to offer my unsolicited opinion. ;) Katrina I agree with you 100% in spirit. There are a lot of ugly "communities" on the web where people are flat out mean to each other, and I hate that with a passion. All in all, this is a very good group of people. IMHO, the CF community is one of the best on the net. There is some bickering here and there but in general most everyone here is extremely helpful and very polite. Often time people go *way out their way* to help people. Not to mention that some people here are down right brilliant. With that said, before you pass judgment on Brian, please take a moment to review at the questions that Erik Tom posts here. I think you will find that nearly all of them are poorly thought out, poorly worded, full of horrendous grammar and spelling errors and at times don't even make sense. It is as if he doesn't care. Look, we are talking about a guy who forwarded a Nigerian Lotto scam email to this list. People come here to learn and share their knowledge with the community. This list is a two way street. If you expect someone to take the time to answer your question please be respectful enough to take the time to ask a thoughtful, well worded question. Or at least Google it or crack open a book or RTM before post to a list. We are talking Netiquette 101.
