Help....I click on the postings and it seems that some of them 'pop' up with the usual threaded list of who has responded but there is no 'narrative' box. No matter whose response I click on....it shows the list of respondants but no dialog......

any ideas?????

Click on "My Stuff," scroll down and click on "Preferences." Where it says "Topic Display Mode," change it from "Threaded Mode" to "Flat Mode." Scroll down, click "Submit" and return to the forum.

You're welcome. Perhaps I should change my signature to: "Female geeks rule!" Seriously, with fellow members working in IT, I imagine one of them would have diagnosed the problem sooner.

Being an IT geek myself, I use the flat mode. Easier to read everything.

"Flat Mode," in the default setting, you see ten posts at once.
