I would very much appreciate this information.
A number of years ago, now, I started trying to do something very
simple. Now I am here, because this is the most direct way to
accomplish what I was trying to do. When I type most questions I have
into Google I get no results, and when I ask them I receive no
responses.
I can not remember what I was originally trying to do.
Respectfully,
