Hi SuzyQ, I have no problem with people sharing the information I post. I only ask the the links to the source be included as often it may not be something I wrote and the originating source should be credited. I'm glad you find it useful. Good tip on color coding messages. thanks Mike *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 27/08/2003 at 3:05 PM SuzyQ wrote: Interesting article, Mike. Thanks! ;-) May I forward it (removing your address, etc.) to my graphics group at Yahoo! Since I'm on several groups, I also have set up a filter (in OE) that uses the color green for any message that has my name in it. Before doing this I was missing a lot of chit-chat messages that came in with the graphics, tubes, etc.. If the subject header and/or body has "Suzy", "SuzyQ", and also possible misspellings of my name, the message is green & I know I am to respond to those first. Also helps to catch 'those' who talk about me to someone else in the groups. <grin> Thanks again! I don't contribute a lot, but I have learned a lot from this group.
