As Ulf already mentioned, please TellTheDetails. Just telling us "I get an error", or "I don't understand it" doesn't make it easy to help you with it.

When you get an error, always tell us exactly what you did and what the error message is (copy and paste it from your screen). If you only say "I get an error", then we have to guess what the error is (we cannot see what is on your screen!) which makes it really hard to help you solve it.

Also, if you don't understand something, then explain in detail what you did not understand. If you read a whole manual and then say "help me, I don't understand it" then what do you expect - that other people here will explain the whole manual to you in easier language? Ask a more specific and detailed question, then we can help you.
