I expect you could have written the whole thing in the time it took me to read your post ... with time for a tea-break in the middle

It seems to me that once PM-ing is involved there are less people who are willing to have a go at diagnosing the problem. Whereas if a file is attached in the OP's post it often gets quite a few downloads. Whether these downloads are by people who have any intention of trying to help the OP or whether they're scavengers hoping for a free book would be open to debate, of course
