thanks for helping.. I was able to paste the code, but unfortunately when I clicked on Save the query never stopped. 

Waiting for other queries... for at least 40 min.

My ID tag is very very very big, because it is a concatenation of many columns.

EDIT: after +- 1 hour it worked! 

@dufoq3  many thanks.. !
