Default Is this possible?

Go to this site:

http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...&f ltr=&exp=1

Alternatively, go through Google groups

Forgive my apparent density :) , but I'm an access programmer used to
the AccessMonster site where there is a link always available for
posting new threads.

Am I to understand then, that there is no ability to start a new thread
while looking at an existing post? (I'm trying to reassure myself that
this is a reality of the site design and not a deficiency in my
browser.)

This is mildly inconvenient in that one frequently desires to post a
thread after/while viewing threads returned by a fruitless search. I
suppose we're all getting lazy in this day and age, but not having to
return to the forums page (I haven't checked this out yet) or some
other page would be 1 less operation.

Given that the purpose of the site is to post new threads, it would
seem that a link or button to do so should appear prominently on every
page. I can't imagine what the downside to that would be.

I posted here once or twice in the past and had the same problem. I had
to go hunting for a link to post. I have visited thousands of sites in
the interim and remembering the idiosyncracies of these sites is an
impossible expectation.

It just seems that so fundamental a task should be a lot easier to
execute.

Thanks for your help,

Bill
