Hi, others have by now addressed your issue, so I'll now have my say.
Please in future, use a better title than the one you have chosen - it will help others who are searching for a solution to problems similar to what you were having.
You are lucky this mailing list is so laidback and forgiving as to tolerate such a silly title. I know other mailing lists and forums where you would be warned by the maintainers/admins and even banned for doing it more than once.
Indeed, I generally won't even read messages with a title like that because I have better things to do than read every message. I generally only read messages where the description mentions something I may have experience with or am interested in. Otherwise it goes in the trash.
I used to do that, too, but I have found that I learn many things for reading posts about which I know very little. That's what lurking is for....
However, I reiterate what Mr. Steward says - follow the guidelines if you really want to get help, especially in the future.
Just a friendly suggestion from
