People have responded to your posts in other news groups about this issue.
Check back there. Also:
Please do not multi-post. If you send the same message to multiple news
groups one at a time, it forces the rest of us to download your message
multiple times. Also, it means if someone replies to one of your posts
in one news group, the other places you posted the message will not see
that reply! This is known as "multi-posting".
If you want to post the same thing to multiple news groups, include all
of the news groups in a single post in the "Newsgroups" line, separated
by commas, like so:
Newsgroups: comp.sys.mac.system, comp.sys.mac.apps
That way when someone replies to your post in one group, that reply is
seen in all other news groups to which you sent the post. This is called
"cross-posting" and is the proper way to do it.

I understand what I did and will make sure that it does not happen
again. The reason for the multipe post was because I thought I hd
posted in the wrong group I now know better.
that was my first and second post this being my third.
