Re: Re:trying to post, no success. (Error Alert?)

 

Hi MEB,

Finally success!! This is the post. I guess that persistence pays off!!

None of the other ones in the Error Alert string did not show up I wrote

some early this morning. I started a 8 this morning I even lost count after

6 times!! I know that this is a long post I sent so bear with it, please.

All information important, I think.
