cjfranca,

Thank you very much for the link very helpful . I just hate when someone sent a line for introducing themselves as sales rep. I don't want a sales rep I need knowledge and support.

You would know if seek to learn. And you have it here because it has a lot of material.
This is also to do business. And try to be more humble to be helped.
