Nobody will be interested in helping you when you just demand answers from the forum without giving anything back. You have asked many questions. You have accepted none of the answers as a solution. The reasons you didn't get a solution to that question are explained in that thread.

In this case you are demanding that someone write an instruction manual for you but you haven't even taken the time to explain what you understand and where you are stuck.
