Hi Alan,

Thanks a lot for responding and giving me a chance to appologize again for that message. I didn't mean anything bad, of course, but I guess, it would be much better, if I keept my observations to myself. BTW, I used both forums, when I had ASP questions and tek-tips forum experts usually came to the rescque (? spell) quicker, than here...

I agree with that you're saying about both forums, they should complement each other and don't have to have a competition. Besides, in my humble opinion, UniversalThread is better forum for VFP developers...

BTW, you're not right about 6 months limit on UT search. The limit is 2 years (and I set it to be my default option for the search). If you need to search older archives, you would have to use specific range.

Update. Just checked, that Michel already told you that... Well, at least couple of good points were reached in this thread and some UT features, that not everyone was aware of, were discussed...

>I feel a guilty conscience coming on here (on my part!). When I am in high-pressure programming mode, and need advice/answers/solutions as quickly as possible, I often post the same questions to both UT and Tek-Tips. This way I maximise message exposure and can be assured of helpful answers from experts from both sites.

>I appreciate there may be a few of us who use both messageboards, but I get the impression that the vast majority of developers frequent one forum or the other, but not both. I realise there is a risk that someone may see my message on both areas, but I don't see this as a problem.

>When I am searching for previous solutions to a problem, the UT search is limited to a 6-month window, but I often like to search for earlier solutions and find it a nuisance to have to repeat the search (a user-defined date-range would be useful). Tek-tips enables searching of the whole forum, but this is probably more practical because it has less traffic than UT.
