When I click on the link in the email notification that my question has been
answered, I get a blank page rather than being taken to to this Excel site with the question I posted and its answer(s). I cannot figure out what the problem is. Can someone give me a suggestion(s) on how I can correct this problem? Thank you. |

You don't say what site you are on, so it makes it almost impossible to assist you. However, a much easier/better way to read/respond/follow-up in MS newsgroups is to use Outlook Express. You get direct access without going thru a website.

Good advice about using a real newsreader. Does OE have no provision for showing full message headers? You don't say what site you are on, so it makes it almost impossible to assist you. With Forte Agent I just hit the "h" key to see full headers. OP is posting from the CDO site as shown in the header of original post.

Thanks Jim
I was just curious since you posted the statement.................. You don't say what site you are on, so it makes it almost impossible to assist you. Am I missing something?

Jim, thanks for your response. I am using MSN.com, and I did not have this
problem in the past. I have not been using Outlook Express because Qwest, my carrier, does not use it.

What do you mean by "I have not been using Outlook Express because Qwest, my
carrier, does not use it."? Firstly Qwest give instructions on using OE with its own news server: http://www.qwest.net/help/newsgroups.html And secondly, whether or not your ISP has its own server, you can access these groups by using Microsoft's own server. Perhaps you need to try re-reading the links which you were given? -- David Biddulph "jfg" wrote in message ... Jim, thanks for your response.

David, thank you very much for your response. When I signed on with Quest, I
was told by one of their technical people that Quest did not use Outlook Express because it caused too many problems. Obviously, I was not given the correct information. I am reading the links given above, and I will read the Qwest link you gave. Again, thank you very much. jfg "David Biddulph" wrote: What do you mean by "I have not been using Outlook Express because Qwest, my carrier, does not use it."?

I've been having the same problem for a long time and accidently just
stumbled upon an answer. Although those links are to the right place, one needs to be logged on to the site in order for them to work. If you go to the Communities site first and log on then the link will open properly. I'm wondering if using the "Save my email and password" option would eliminate having to do this but I haven't tried that yet.
