Hello Mark Sir,

   Sorry if you feel bad due to my foolishness and inadequate knowledge.

   My actual problem is that my setup is at college and due to internet
connectivity

   problems as well as college hours are over, I am responding from home.

   So as per your instructions I will again go thoroughly through your
replies.

   And I hope that I won't try to disturb you.

   Sorry for my foolishness,

   Thanks for your help !!
