Default Excel as data entry form?

I wouldn't recommend Google Groups as a prime means of accessing newsgroups,
but it does allow cross-posting.
Under the "To newsgroups:" box it says "(Separate multiple groups with
commas)", and there is also an option link for setting follow-ups.

Use OE at home, but for security reasons, my office has blocked OE usage
with
newsgroups, so to get to these groups and get answers to questions during
the
work day, I am stuck with the IE (web based) options. It generally works
well, but when you want to post to multiple groups with a single thread,
it
is difficult to say the least.

You haven't cross-posted, so if you've done anything you've multiposted.

IE is not the right tool to post to newsgroups.
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/...ups/howto.mspx will
tell
you how to set up OE to access newsgroups via the microsoft news server
(or
news://msnews.microsoft.com/ may get you straight to the server), but of
course there are other servers and other newsreading software available.

http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/posting.htm and
http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel...s.htm#xlgroups may also help
you.

Please excuse the crosspost, but I'm using Internet Explorer to post
this
and
cannot figure out how to multi-post.
