Hi Ratan,

Great to hear that this solved your problem. You may want to consider
fixing the rest of the bags edit by either running my edit on line 2 (which
allows Windows to save up to 8000 views instead of the default 400)or
re-download the one on line 327.

Will also add this to your original thread as well.
