You need to lose the attitude.

There are a number of people here who are trying to help you but
both your problem description and your level of Ada knowledge
are unclear.

Shark8's response was a good faith effort to correct you on Ada
syntax because it's unclear what your level of Ada knowledge is.
My questions, along with the questions others are asking you, are
good faith attempts to try and help you clarify the problem so
someone can offer more precise guidance.

Simon.
