try providing enough code for people to reproduce the problem & you may get some assistance although i suspect many posters may believe you to be a previous poster (also called Nicos) who was a disaster looking for somewhere to happen, if that is not you then I would also suggest you try reading https://www.biostars.org/p/75548/ -- "Free markets select for winning solutions." -- Eric S.
