Are you receiving any errors? Does this code not work that way you intended it? When asking for help there are a couple items that are vital in order for someone to properly help you:

• Post the code you're having problems with
  
• Post the exact error you're receiving, if you are receiving one
  
• If no error explain what the code is doing versus what you want it to do
  
• Post your question in the body of your post, not the description field
