Are these posts shown by date order based on the last response? If not, is there a way to have them shown by date? Thanks. Mary

No. The web interface that you are using only lists threads in reverse order of posting any replies to those are listed under them. If you use the search facility, e.g. press Alt-7 and type and enter some words you hope the messages you are going to start reading will contain, the order *may* be based on date to some extent but on the whole I would say no one really knows what accounts for the order it presents... ; } > > If not, is there a way to have them shown by date? Yes. Use a real NNTP newsreader. ; ) E.g. assuming you have a Microsoft newsreader installed copy the following link to your Address bar and press Enter. news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.technet Then you have much greater flexibility in the order that you can view posts and even whether you view them threaded. For example, you could view them unthreaded, and sort them by a date field to see them in the order you are asking for. > Thanks. > > Mary HTH Robert Aldwinckle ---
