I can dig where you are coming from with your request. The replies it generated were worth a read too. In them there were some good points re the relative usefulness of an archive and the difficulty of trapping those true nuggets which reflect usually hard won experience in a sometimes hidden or obscure corner of Oracle. When I started on the list I used to hardcopy postings I deemed useful. Hardcopy 'cos like you I didn't really have "soft space" for them. I gave up in disillusionment from trying to find a way to file and more importantly be able to quickly retrieve these hardcopies by using some sort of keyword lookup. I used to number the hardcopy and log it in a spreadsheet with key words against it. This spreadsheet functioned as my index to articles! So now I'm curious as to how you are/were planning to lookup a topic or issue. Something as simple as search all mails for word "X"?. ------------------------- Se�n O' Neill Organon (Ireland) Ltd.
