Once again the web interface is down!
Can someone please tell me why it is so hard to keep a simple web interface (which never changes) up and running. I am now truly starting to understand why people have been migrating over to alternate forums. It is sad when Microsoft themselves don't have any interest in keeping forums functional which promote their own products. And yes, I know one can use a newsreader..., but as demonstarted on a regular basis, there are still a great number of users who use the web interface. Daniel Pineault |

I assume you are using Microsoft's interface, which has been a disaster area
for as long as I can remember. There are more reliable alternative's such as Access Monster, which I'm using.

"Larry Linson" a écrit dans le message de groupe de discussion : ... As noted in a later post by , they plan to phase out the newsgroups in favor of online forums. I suspect, given that plan, that maintenance of the web interface to newsgroups is not high on anyone's priority list. If I were managing that function, I'd be devoting most (the vast majority of) my resources to the new work. Larry Linson Microsoft Office Access MVP "Daniel" wrote in message ...

: I'm hoping this https://connect.microsoft.com/Micros...?wa=wsignin1.0 will allow me to continue too use my newsreader. I hate the online forum format. I can't believe MS thinks maintaining that will be more cost effective than an NNTP server. The NNTP bridge software they are providing ought to work. That is, there's theoretically no reason it can't be done (it's done all the time with other forums), but MS seems determined to do everything ass-backwards, and there are some real howlers in the articles listed at the bottom of the cited page. I'll be trying it and reporting back, but have to finish a 4GB MSDN download first.... -- David W. Fenton http://www.dfenton.com/ usenet at dfenton dot com http://www.dfenton.com/DFA/ |
