 Hi Arthur,

Before looking at your .tex file, what is the history of your problem please?

What system are you on, and how have you got your copy of TeXworks?

>"i am trying to reinstall texlive with no success

You can not install TexLive at all?

When/how were you last able to get your document to open and compile?

Anything relevant you can say about the history of all this will help please.

Kind regards,

Paul
