How do I access? save ? discussion topics?

[Guest]

I enjoy and use many of the posts I find here to improve my skills, however I
cant find the topic I studied yesterday let alone last week! Even writing
the question that I studied and placing it in the find box I cant seem to
locate the question thread. Is there an alphabetical list some where?
Thank you!

The web interface to the info here is convenient for quick posts but it leaves a
lot to be desired. This is actually a standard newsgroup under the hood; any
newsreader program can access it. Outlook Express, for example, can download
huge chunks of messages at one time and store them all on your PC.

This has some suggestions:

How do I join the PowerPoint newsgroup?

There's also Google Groups for both reading and searching the newsgroup.

In addition to what Steve has recommended. Make use you set up you
newsreader only to download the headings and not the whole message to your
computer until you want to read it.
