I have tried to click on several email messages to me as a result of
questions in the discussion groups.
I click on "Read the Response" and get a blank screen.
I click on "Click this link to continue " and get a blank screen.
This occurs not only on my home computer but at a major university library
so it is not unique to my home computer.
I don't know exactly what I copied here but I tried to copy th
"properties" of the link referred to above.

You know this is a Visual Basic group right?

Thankyou but I have no idea what Visual Basic is. I tried to copy the address
but believe that a heck of a lot more was included in what I posted than the
actual address.

LO AND BEHOLD
Evidently, since my post, my problem has miraculously disappeared. Strange,
huh?

You are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!!

Some days it works, some days it doesn't. Microsoft must be a really crappy
outfit to let this happen (don't tell me they don't monitor these sites)!!

This group is for Visual Basic, not Vista Business. Please post to groups
with "vista" in the name.

Thank you

Well, it's November and I guess they haven't fixed the problem. I checked the
"Notify me of replies" box on this message, but I guess that won't help since
I can't see the replies.

I'd suggest you "get a real newsreader" or, at least, Outlook Express.

This isn't (despite all appearances) a website. It's a newsgroup. HTH!

Sorry, Microsoft must have directed me (and maybe Steve and braxx20 as well)
to the wrong discussion group earlier. My problem had nothing to do with VB
and the emailed original link is working properly today. Must have been a MS
problem when I tried before and came up with nothing. It's working properly
today and I have received helpful responses from the proper group. aw
