As you are all newbies, I would highly recommend you to lock your threads, if you get your answers for your needs.
You can lock your thread, by clicking on the lock topic on the lower left corner of your post. First click edit post and then follow to lock.
If you want to unlock to continue using the thread, you can unlock from the same place where you locked it.
That's right, i have seen many threads where the question asked by OP is answered many times and the answer cannot be different from what each and every user have said but the thread is still going on, it is just a not needed opportunity for anyone to come and write what has already been written by many people, so it is better to just lock the thread when you think you got the answer you were looking for.
