Astral projection, tips and tricks Options

Ive been trying to astral project for about 4 months now with no success! I let my body fall asleep but then nothing happens.
I clear my mind with my body asleep... AND NOTHING HAPPENS.
I am getting a bit frustrated but U have perseverence.
Last night I layed in my bed for at least 2 hours trying to AP.
Is there anything Im missing here? Ive tried various methods but the main theme in all of them is mind awake, body asleep putting your body into sleep and leaving your mind awake and open to explore.
Does anyone have some tips and tricks to help me out here?

Thanks,
GP

4 months!!! Wow, you must be really trying hard (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif).

Try in the morning INITIALLY, like 1-4 hours before you wake up...you can try doing it at night later. Heck, I'm not sure that night AP even works, theres so many people against it...but there's something really attractive about APing all night (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif).
Do what bym says and in addition I would advise you to vividly visualise that you are seeing through your eyelids when you try to AP. Oh, and don't try too hard - relaxation is beneficial to AP!
