That person didn't put you in a difficult position, you put yourself in it. 
What's funny is, you are relying on others to do your work. You should never 
stop just because one person said they will help. Go find the answer or 
solution yourself. I think you have received so much help with so much 
patience, and for you to come back like that? THAT'S abusive. The guy willing 
to help you is not on your payroll. You need to realize that this is no ones 
issue but yours and yours alone. You have the attitude you have right now, and 
it is going to be hard to find more help on this list.

Disagree. If someone tells you, "Hey, I'm going to help you. Just give me a
couple of days and I'll take a personal look at your code and walk you
through it." and you believe him and he strings you along and wastes 10 of
your precious days, you mean to tell me that's all good? You mean to tell me
you'd be grateful to him doing that? I don't think so... That's abusive,
period. If you're not going to fulfill, then keep your mouth shut. Don't
offer. This person put me an additional 10 days behind schedule with
promises he didn't fulfill. That is not good. Period.

Well, gee, so do I!!! I'm just brand new, that's all.

And that's exactly what I'm doing. But I figured I'd give this guy enough
time to prove if he was honest. He wasn't. What a pity.

Thank you all for your code suggestions. I'm working on them now and will
respond later.
