From: Laurel on 10 Jun 2010 12:56 Newsgroups that I've used for years have disappeared from the news.microsoft.com server. Where does one go now for questions about these and other Office applications? I know this isn't relevant to this newsgroup, but hoping someone can tell me something. TIA LAS

You can sign up at the free USENET server Eternal-September: http://www.eternal-september.org. It's what I and several other folks in this group did.

So, sign up for an account at E-S, log onto their server, and you should find the groups you lost! :-)

Try getting the same groups on Eternal September or another 3rd party news hosting service. That's where I'm getting this group from. D |
