It is far too soon to repeat it in another newsgroup "because I didn't get a
response there" especially because most of the SharePoint MVPs are in

Have a bit of patience next time please. Give people at least 3 days to
respond.

If you want 24 hour response ring PSS with your check book handy or use
managed newsgroups.
