What is the error message? Did you change "myname" to your name?

[Boing]

i did nothing....and its giving invalid outside procedure

[MartinLiss]

That line needs to be inside a Sub or Function. Is it?

[Boing]

can you help me to make this code work.
it need lots of things and the writer has not provided any legends which confuse me.
