Hi All, I don't want this to sound like a complaint, just a request --- after all, this is a great list! If you start a new msg, could you please not reply to an existing msg? Doing so starts a thread within the old subject. I don't think that is what we want. We want contributors to view subjects and be able to reply or ignore a msg/thread of a particular subject. Thus, a msg with new subject matter may be lost to someone who can help. It can also be a bit annoying when someone is interested in the original post but views posts of different subjects in that thread. If you do accidentally reply to an existing msg with a new msg subject, could you copy your post and start a new msg? -- just so we don't go down that road (i've seen some pretty long threads here with many subjects) thanks! brad
