06:18 stroppy new thread (this one)

Your request was unclear. Both Bob and Ian tried to help you. You didn't
explain to Bob where the error occurred, you just "blew him out".
Ian persisted in trying to understand exactly what you wanted, but your
impatience and ingratitude to the help you were being offered caused you to
start a new agressive thread.

I'm sure that the regular contributors to this forum are delighted that you
have obtained a satisfactory solution, and no doubt you will continue to
seek future advice from that source, because for sure you are unlikely to
find it here.

Continue your sad life.


Regards

Roger Govier
