Sorry for the long response-time, was a "strange" week here in Germany.

Thanks for the answers so far, but still I dont get it.

=> no effect

=> hard stuff, but I will try to understand it.

> The moon... very good subject. Have you looked at LUNEX ?

=> Good tip, thanks for that. I didn't know it before, I played around a bit.
Maybe I can learn something from that, because the results look better and
error-free after the first tests.

I will set up a new test environment in the next days/weeks, try to incorporate
Lunex's approach there. Maybe I'll get ahead with it. I can't use Lunex
completely for my purposes, but maybe I can learn from it.
