Choosing a Subject Title, How to be Specific
Howdy,
Just a reminder when it comes time to submit a question/comment. When choosing a subject title, BE SPECIFIC. Using titles such as "Help" or "This doesn't Work" does not help. All it does is clutter and makes all threads look the same. Especially when other users try to search for topics that might be able to help them, it makes it difficult to search for useful threads. If you have a problem with a formula, use a title like "IF() formula returns #NAME!" or "Code for Average of multiple sheets". Please, stop being vague on the subject matter. Be smart, think your question through. Best Regards |

Excellent advice. A few years ago, I used to post a "Hints And Tips For New
Users" on the newsgroups.
