I am a newbie that why I asking for help.   With no document (I hope there
is one in the future), do you think people know this kind of thing soon they
were born.  By the way, I reply to my original message is to tell people
that I overlook something and don't want other people waste time on the
silly mistake. I did't said it was an error from the script.   I hope this
user group should have a little patient to the newbie or may be start a new
list for newbie.   :-)
