You ask the question "isn't it?". The short answer is, I wouldn't know because I didn't see your post and don't store a personal threaded archive of the thousands of posts to this list. Obviously, the original non-subscribed user (Jon) did not see/read your reply either, since he came back for additional assistance, referring to Dan's reply, which is what I was replying to. Dave
Strange. And I didn't think of the possibility that most people probably don't save all conversations. I do it, but that's just because I can. I have set up this gmail account for mailing lists only (to keep my ordinary email account free from it) and by now they are 121 MB all together (which is 4% of the available 2838 MB). I could recommend others to do the same, because whenever I need to ask a question, I can search the whole mailing list first to see if the question already have been asked. Of course I can do that anyway, but obviously people don't. That's probably why people ask the same question over and over again (such as "Is OpenOffice.org compatible with Vista", "Is there an Outlook equivalent…" and so on forever in ∞)… Well, no harm in that, but maybe somewhat unnecessary. On the other hand, people who ask that kind og stuff, are probably recently subscribed to the list (or not subscribed at all) so they obviously have no place to search (except here<http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/SearchList?listName=users>of course).
