Hi Claire. The format changed a few months back so you cant get early messages to nudge or find, but in the address bar you will see the number of this thread, if you know what number you want take this number out and put the one you want in, my one for instance was number 2. Does that make sense? Bet it don't :))) Lynda

Claire You need to type a few words of the title of the thread into the search box. It will then give you all the threads containing those words in the title and its a case of ploughing thru them until you find the one you want! Lou

Do GR recommend deleting our threads? If so I'll give it a go when I have the time.

Hi claire If you are the originator of a thread you can remove it altogether. If you answer a thread you can remove only your reply. I posted the first message after GR on the first day of Genes starting in 2002 and the message is still on. Hope this helps Lynda

Does anyone know if old threads are deleted from these boards? I have a print-off of a thread from 2003, but now i can't find it. Claire
