Guys, got the answer from other sources.

Thanks

Many thanks for not telling us what the answer you got "from other sources" was. We really appreciate helping others while never getting anything back, not even knowledge.

In fact we are overjoyed now knowing that there is a problem for which a solution already exists, but is just unkown to us, which allows us to do again the research and work that has already been done somewhere on this planet.

Thanks, but no thanks at all.

Hi ,

Sorry if i offended you. I didnt mean that...
I was new in the site and didn't know that i need to update as well the answer ...

It was actually my fault why i am having that error, when i was copying the file from local disk, it was set as ASCII mode so what i did was copy back the file and choose
binary instead. then it works...

edit by bakunin: You haven't offended me and if i came across that way I'd like to apologize. We are not only answering questions here, we are constantly building a knowledge base: ideally every thread consists of a problem ("how can i do X?" and one or several answers to it. The next time someone has this problem s/he could look it up here by searching the threads (which are archived from the very beginning). Suppose now someone would encounter your problem: s/he would search here, find your thread and ... ? Find out that your problem was solved but you don't tell how. The only remuneration we ask from others for helping them is: if we are not able to find the solution or if we are simply too slow and someone else found it, then, by all means, post it here to enlarge our knowledge base so that somebody else can profit from it. This is why i was somewhat bitter about your answer and why i am happy now that you have told it to the public.
