Yes, I know that. I have read the example more then 5 times,but I have
failed for many times too.Who can help me to modify the subroutine above(a
much more simple example) and teach how to link them step by step? Many guys
are interested in it. Or are there any detailed document on it? The
explanasion of the help document is too simple.
