I just want to *really* thank you for the hard work you got involved and that you carried out with one of the highest levels of professionalism (and patience :)) very few of us could ever equal (not I, for sure). I thank you also not for the technical hints you gave to Krish, instead for your your choice "to not rob [you] Krish the opportunity to learn". Actually I was tempted to write something like "first do this, than that, and finally run this tool". But I was able to desist, by learning from you how people should be helped for real. Most of us here should learn by your attitude. Thanks again, seriously. Regards, Fabio
