then you might use the compare between the findparty and yours to see
what might be different.
I am willing, on the mailing list to
1) investigate what is in the svn.
2) give pointers to someone doing custom code.
what I am not willing to do
is trouble shoot someones code, unless I am hired.
So I have been doing #2.
you don't have a grasp yet. believe I know how frustrating that is.
here are the three rules I learn by
1) read everything till I understand ever word. this says you have 50%
of a discipline down.
2) when you think you know enought change something and predict the outcome.
3) if the outcome is not what you predicted go to #1, you missed something.
maybe someone else is willing to support you custom code.
I feel I have given you a way to accomplish trouble shooting this and
other problems you may have.
it is better to teach someone how to fish that to supply the fish for them.
