Indeed you're not. I also read the post in the same way, and made a
comment. The comment wasn't what the poster wanted to read, but it's
what he needed to know.

That's a very good summary of his request. And to summarise my reply
(which you also quoted): You're going down the wrong road, mate. Your
problem is a direct consequence of your preferred "solution". (Which is
what he didn't want to hear.)




I still don't get your point, mainly, I suspect, because you don't have
one. Nothing in your post quoted above has anything to do with the post
with which you started this sub-thread. So could we stop it here?
