From: Arlene on 30 May 2010 13:21 I'm praying they're as helpful and easy to use as this newsgroup. What is Usenet? Do you recommend Usenet over the new forum? Will you wonderful MVPs still provide answers at the new forum?

From: Stefan Blom on 30 May 2010 14:01 Usenet is simply a system for internet discussion groups (= newsgroups); for more, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet. Even after Microsoft has shut down their news server msnews.microsoft.public, it will be possible to continue posting there (for example via a server such as news.eternal-september.org if you are using a newsreader such as Outlook Express or Windows Mail), but as many people won't be aware of this, the groups will eventually "die." At Microsoft's web site, you will be directed to the forum, of course. Many MVPs, including myself, are already answering questions in the new forums. :-) -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP (Message posted via msnews.microsoft.com) "Arlene" <Arlene(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:AE895E51-51F6-406B-BB93-641E2AF85D0E(a)microsoft.com... > I'm praying they're as helpful and easy to use as this newsgroup.
