Originally I did not want to post any more to this issue, but I rechecked and
as I was unprecise I at least should correct it:
The param is set to "=true" not YES (as I postulated), sorry for that.
But thanks for all the help, I will not bother you with this further on.
I will find a solution for me myself, see this issue as solved.
Thanks for the help!
Best regards
