Is someone supposed to try to make sense out of this.
Computers have commas, periods, question marks, shift keys to make
capital letters, etc., so that reading what you wrote becomes easy.
Try posting to the proper newsgroup next time.
The Access in this groups title refers to Microsoft Access, a database
program. Oh yes, use proper punctuation and capital letters where
appropriate. You will lose a lot of potential repliers if they are as
unwilling as I am, to wade through this.
