It's hard to keep up with the questions and answers that I got involved. Things got easily drifted in this format.



Has anyone been able to organize or keep track of the items they're interested in keeping up?....



I think more answers can be provided if we find ways for people to get back to the topic more easily. Of course you can search, but not if you forgot what the topic was, or didn't know what others asked.....Does anyone else find this free format hard to keep up with? Imagine two years later, some rookie wants to ask you how to work the Zebra printer to print hang tags, and you didn't log on for a week, didn't see the questions, didn't help even though you're here to help......:=)


You can use an external news reader like Outlook Express if you like. It allows you to "watch" a thread, see attachments and do more powerful (IMO) searching.

The news server is msnews.microsoft.com and the newsgroup name is microsoft.public.pos

Kay,

Not MS Outlook, Outlook Express. They are different programs. Outlook Express is included free with Windows. MS Outlook is not free and always comes with MS Office, although it can be purchased separately.

Click on the link below. Click on "Open with newsreader" under the MS Retail Management System section on the right. It will configure Outlook Express for you and will bring you back to this newsgroup in Outlook Express.
