I've received two notifications that there were replys to my questions but,
when I click on the link in the e-mail, IE comes up with a blank page. And,
my posts aren't in the list when I look under Access.

The posts to these newsgroups are actually on Newsgroups - ancient, pre-World
Wide Web text repositories. The Microsoft webpage is only one (and not the
best) way to get to them. You can use Outlook Express or Windows Mail in their
"News" mode; set the Newsserver to msnews.microsoft.com.

You can also look at archives of past posts on http://groups.google.com. That
service has had some problems lately but if you use Advanced Search to search
a single newsgroup (this one is microsoft.public.access) you should be able to
find your posts.

Now of course you've posted in a medium which you KNOW makes it hard for you
to find the replies, without posting a (munged to prevent robotic harvesting)
email address, so I hope you'll be able to see this reply!
