Thanks Daniel... sad to see this place go, but it looks like a number of
people have already at least made attempts to migrate to the forums. I
suppose this will take some getting used to...

May I suggest UtterAccess.com? I don't believe I've seen you floating
around there yet. I'll put a plug in for the AccessWiki they've setup there
as well, I'm a pretty big fan of that.

Cheers,

Jack,

You can see MS' post at

http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...b-fe77ee0222dc

and then (all the real info is in this second post)

http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...8-b4f7ebe187fd

The post above has the links you'll need.

Their new web interface is poor at best; mixing multiple apps together,
limited search capability.

From what I've read their NNTP Bridge for newsreaders is not evident to
setup and didn't work altogether for certain forum members, but I never tried
it out myself.

I remember finding this place the same day that I learned what "Me" did, and
it's been my significant source for information since. So yes, definately a
thanks is due to everyone who put up with and answered my earlier ridiculous
questions (and my later ones that were probably just as ridiculous in their
own way).

Having been away from the community for a while, I seem to have missed this
notice that MS gave out... (I do recall seeing one in the queries NG about a
month ago saying that they would slowly be converting these NGs to forums,
but without any information as to what/where/when...). Is there any
replacement for this that MS is offering?

Firstly, let me apologize for making this beautiful cross-post. I know it
bad etiquette, but in this instance I'm hoping no one will truly mind (after
all MS did it with their announcement...).

I, like everyone else in this forum, owe each of the contrinbuting members a
Great Big Thank You for all the time, patiences, knowledge and experience
that you have given us over the past many years!

I would particularily like to thank, people such as:

Allen Browne
Al Campagna
Roger Carlson
Alex Dybenko
Stephen Lebans
Arvin Meyer
Graham R. Seach
Doug Steele
Tony Toews
Lynn Trapp
Joan Wild
Dirk Goldgar
Keith Wilby
John Spencer
Jerry Whittle
Dave Hargis
Albert D. Kallal
Jeff Boyce

And so many more that have directly helped me solve various problems and
give me the urge to continue learning!

It is sad to see this all come to an end in a few days and I wish you all
the very best.

Sincerely,

Daniel Pineault
