I'd strongly suggest you look at the documentation as the first point of reference. There's been a few topics you have created that could have been directly answered by checking the docs. We don't mind helping, but it's also useful to help yourself and it'll speed your learning and understanding a lot faster than waiting on answers to your questions.
