When you get to the last messege on page fifteen have a look in the address bar on your browser.There should be a long number after the website address. This number is the message number, if you type in 1 here will bring up the first ever message and so forth so keep changing the number at the end you never know what you might find, labourious but interesting.......

Judith, it won't help you with this but next time you post a message, note down the number at the end of the address bar (this one is 551023). When you want to go to that message click on any thread, delete the message number that is there, add the one you are looking for and click Go. That will take you to the message you are looking for. Sorry I can't help with your current problem. Mel

Or just go to the Favorites menu in your browser and then choose Add to Favorites - in other words just bookmark the page and then use the bookmark to return to it - simply solution although would be nice to have a search button on the page
