You're still wrong on the facts... as you were last night... and you were told then that your interpretation of events was incorrect (in Re: install cpan Win32::OLE on cygwin - $Excel->Workbooks->Add; fails).

Here's a an ill-formatted (for PM, that is) link: [http://google.com]
... this one also comes up short of the PM standards: [a href=http://google.com"].

Update: rjt pointed out (by msg) that combining crack, alcohol, excess caffination, funky mushrooms and PM is not a really good idea.
Well, actually, the msg mentioned that the first of the two allegedly malformed links above is not malformed. rjt is correct, and I don't have a clue where my mind was (well, 'lala land?') as I wrote that, but -- fondly (or not) remembering Dan Quayle -- I can confirm from the personal experience above that 'a mind is a terrible thing to lose.' Thank you rjt; apologies to all others for spewing an inaccuracy.

The first just works; the second sends you off to Super Search (after mulling it over for a bit). BUT NEITHER TAKES YOU TO 'The Permission Denied page."

As for "... I could have removed my confused comment...." -- DON'T!

The norm here is to strikeout (strike ...(old content) </strike>) the material you're tempted to remove. Actually deleting content -- especially if you have replies -- will likely leave future readers of the thread without any context for some of those answers. That's also true if someone is crafting a response as you're changing the original. So, DON'T DELETE; strike and update.

To paraphrase the wisdom in the admonition "cut once but measure twice," write as you wish, but check your facts, first.
