Allow me to bring up a side issue.
Recently (past 6 weeks), I've noticed that I'm not able to see the
*entire*
thread in several cases each day in my O.E.
Also, I've noticed that other folks will post an almost exact suggestion
*hours* after the initial suggestion was posted by someone else, leading
me
to believe that they (second poster) was not aware (couldn't see entire
thread) of the initial suggestion.
I came to that conclusion many months, maybe even years, ago. Often I may do
a Find in OE for a particular person, and it will throw up entries that I
cannot see in the NG thread. And how many times do you see someone saying
that they posted again because they didn't see their originalpost.
I often resort to Google to try and get a complete thread.
Your comment to Jason (nice tip), made me think that perhaps I'm not the
only person missing parts of threads, because I used that same suggestion
in
a thread that you were part of.back on March 6.

Maybe my post didn't come through to your machine.
I'm wondering if you are also experiencing the losing of posts.
Could be that but it could be a couple of other things. Could just be that
my old brain read it and forgot it (I certainly won't forget this one now
:-). Also, I only watch some threads, even of those I join in on, and only
read some replies if I am not contributing or re-contributing. But there are
some people that I monitor in the NGs because I feel that they have an
interesting slant. Jason is one of these in WorksheetFunctions, and so if he
posts to a thread that I watching, then I will read it. So I read Jason's
reply whereas I may have missed an identical reply from someone else.
Is this perhaps a problem with the MS servers, or with O.E., since I see
that you also use O.E.?
Indeed I am, and all of my excuses don't deflect from your main point. I do
also experience the missing posts.
