Jason, I am glad that a bulletin board system like EDI-L works for you. But it must of taken some time to find out other people's talents so you know who to directly email. Perhaps, the online chat feature is not for you.
But there are others who do not have your rolodex of direct contacts. Those people may post a question on EDI-L and wait up to a day to get the answer that fits their needs. Yesterday I was able to help someone with a Rebate question. BUT, I am only one person with limited knowledge. Just imagine what all the guru's could do in the chat room together. Plus, you can just say "Hi" to you fellow EDI friends in the chat room, lol. --- In [email protected], "Jason McMahon" <gutausse@...> wrote: > > One thing I have done after posing a question and waiting for responses is > e-mail directly the member who seems to have a best solution and see if we > can resolve the issue.
