I know this may get me shot, but does anyone know of a forum as good as this for Access, as this is really what I work in, but do dribs and drabs in excel too.
Again I know I'm being cheeky, but being this place is such a wealth of information, I thought I'd ask!!
Cheers,
Graeme

Hi Graeme,
There is the:
microsoft.public.access
newsgroup that you might find helpful.
There is tons of others.. You could do a search in Groups and just
write Access
Regards,
Bondi
Look at the Office Discussion Groups==>Access Database which has equivalent
NGs to the Excel ones.

You could see a list of all the groups via google:
http://groups.google.com/groups/dir?hl=en&sel=33554433
I clicked through a few levels to see this.
http://groups.google.com/groups/dir?...06877&expand=1
But lots of these "forums" like excelforum are just gateways to usenet. They
gobble up your messages and post them to a newsgroup. Then they gobble up
responses and show them to you.
If you're going to use the newsgroups for most anything, I've found it much
better to just connect directly to the MS newsservers.
Saved from a previous post:
If you have Outlook Express installed, try clicking on these links (or copy and
paste into MSIE).

Have a browse through this list of NG's available through msnews.microsoft.com.
http://aumha.org/nntp.htm
You will have to be using a dedicated news reader like OE or Forte Agent.
