Steve, I don't know how this forum will work, but most forums have a new posts since last visit feature. You just click on it and you have a list of all the posts since your last visit just like your email. However, you don't have to delete them. When you visit again, you will get a new list and the old ones are gone. Nothing is downloaded to your computer. It is easy to view and answer.

Of those who don't need help, and are qualified to *give* help, how many will go to a new forum to give it? Maybe a lot, I don't know, but I for one don't do forums and I probably will not be going to any new AB forum either - I just feel my time is better spent working with AB rather than hunting and pecking through a bunch of threads to see what people are talking about. But getting the e-mails is easy and I like it, and over the years I have answered many questions when I come across them because it is not a lot of trouble to do so. Just a thought... TJ - If the forum gets more votes, will you be keeping a group open for announcements? ( new betas and such ) Thanks!
