thanks for that correction ill keep in mind to post just from that header down from now on thanks again for that great information on how to post errors properly
I apologize. That wasn't at all meant to be a correction. It's best to always post the full output, as you did. When the output is >9000 characters, as yours is, you should post it as a .txt file attachment, as you did.
The unfortunate side effect of needing to post the output as an attachment is that it makes it more difficult for casual forum browsers (and maybe people using mobile devices?) to get an idea of what the post is about so that they can determine whether they might have an answer. My reply was only intended to make it easy for people to see what the post was about. I'm experienced enough to be able to have a good chance at being able to identify the important part of the output, but we don't expect that everyone is able to do that and so we ask for the full output always. People posting here often get it completely wrong when they do only post the snippet of what looks important to them. So my post was only intended to increase your likelihood of getting assistance, and not at all as a correction.
