Hi Stefan, Rob, Gilles, Gary and all, Please calm. I was just talking that I'm so busy recently ( Too busy in the daytime that I got home after 12p.m. these days :( ) .I didn't check my mailbox after my last replay in this thread. Really sorry for my late reply. I'm not complaining. I personally like the dependency bot but I'm just not familiar with it yet. English is not my first language so I may misused some words. I'm sorry if I used some words that are not proper enough. Sincely, Lee
