>Well, I'm "that member", but I'm not sure what you meant when you said "I will that member to say what he said." Reads kind of like a typo, so I didn't get the full meaning. But Jim was right, I did want to do a search for messages from a particular person over a date range and didn't feel that for such a search that there should be a requirement to enter search text. I was able to filter on a range of just a week or less, because I knew the rough time frame and I, of course, wanted to keep the results as small as possible.

Yes, I understood the request. Please, add this one in the Task Tracker. This will go in the calendar where we will have that ability to select messages between two dates. There is a difference between searching in the full archives and searching in calendar mode. That one will go in calendar. So, once I'll do it, you'll be able to use the calendar to achieve that need. Despite the fact that we offer several ways, and personally, much more than what you'll find anywhere else, we don't have that type of retrieval. But, it'll be done. Just give me a few days. In the mean time, please, create the entry in the Task Tracker.

>Back to the issue of seeing only messages for a given day: I have suggested this before and you completely blew it off, but I really feel this interface is limiting. The VFP newsgroups on the MS news server allow you to see the postings for more than just one day at a time and so do the message boards on the West Wind site. So it's not as if no one else offers this. This one day at a time stuff just drives me completely bonkers. It's fine if you like it, but why not allow others who don't like it the capability to view the messages over a given date range? I'd usually like to see all messages for about the past 7 days or so.

This is already offered on UT. To read messages back for a few days, just use the Dashboard Time warp and select how far you want to go in time. Or, go in your account setup and change the reset time to the day you want.
