   Please don't bother to reply with RTFM, this is trivial,    this is a waste of bandwidth, redesign your problem and    I might help you, this was posted last week etc. I    don't find this helpful and it also leads others    reading the current newsgroup thread to believe my    post has been answered when it has not.
