azherkn3,


It is the rule of this forum to search the forums before asking questions.

If you continue to break the rules, you will receive more "reminder" points, and you will eventually be banned as you continue to accumulate these points.

When you join a community and ask others to help you, you should, at the very least follow the rules you accepted when you joined the community.

Did you even read the rules?

Please answer my question before you continue posting here and in other threads.

Thanks.
