Hi Sunny,
All of the groups are still here! Sometimes you have to reset your newsgroup
list in OE. Also, those two groups begin with microsoft.public.fox, not
microsoft.public.fox.vfp.

Sunny,
In addition to Cindy's "sage" advice, it can depend on the news server you are using. If you are using msnew.microsoft.com, then they are definitely still there. However, if you are using your ISP's news server, they may not "mirror" all of the forums on the MS server. There can also be a delay in postings and updates on a mirror. If you are using OE, then it's not hard to use multiple news servers - go to the "live" one for the latest and most complete FoxPro info!

Oops - it's msnews.microsoft.com.

Cindy,
Thanks! Do you think that a missing 's' really makes that much difference? <g>

Hiya Sunny -
you are using outlook express to handle your news posting here..
X-Newsreader: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1106
so suggest you use the right nntp news server on
msnews.microsoft.com
and then do a search there for 'fox'
then subscribe to the ones you want .
and .
munge your address for that account ....
perhaps something like [sunny_1178@hotmale.com]
mondo regards [Bill]
ps - Cindy gives 'sage' advice? Oh my!

I also recommend parsley, rosemary, and thyme.
