Is this the best discussion group to post Excel 2007 Bugs? (as "suggestions
for Microsoft"). I was directed here from the Office 2007 site but did not
get any replies to my bug posts. Any suggestions?

I'm afraid it's a little cloudy currently. Many readers of these groups
(MVPs and others) have been on this program as early as pre-beta releases.
We have a tool to report and discuss bugs.

With a huge public roll-out of the software at beta 2. The largest ever
attempted by MS, I think they are hoping that the bugs will get questioned
here and that either they can vacuum them up, (but don't bank on any
replies) or that we, who know most of the known issues will ensure you get
told if it's known, or we will post it in our beta area if we think it's
new.

I think also they will be filtering groups by beta, 2007, etc to try and get
to them easily, so include the 2007 or beta in the subject.

Short advice, post way...we'll answer on known and pick up if not and let
them know

Nick,
Thanks for the advice - I will keep posting as I find them (mainly in the
Excel OLAP MDX area) and hope they have been picked up already and will be
fixed in the final product.

You may do as well to post these in a SQL group to. If these are too 'far
out', I'll try and get someone to help

Nick,
FYI if you are interrested, I posted my bugs refering to SSAS (the only post
using SSAS) on this discussion group

I'm not surprised although they have certainly put a lot of effort into the
CUBE functions to match up with SSAS, post away here and someone my chime up
(it won't be me), but then I'll chime in and cut and paste it where it may
get an answer? ;-)
