Include Errors • Include error messages • Include tech you're using (unless it's already known by the channel you're asking in) Provide code That way others can run it themselves and get the same problem you got. Don't provide all your code, only enough to cause the problem you have. And do not provide screenshots of your code. Provide the actual code text. Mark as SOLVED When Done When your issue has been solved, please edit the tags to add SOLVED so others know it's not still unanswered!
