No luck - will only have to delete thread and start again or leave it and add that a new thread in the same vain has been started.

:-D :-D :-D

Oh Thanks SylviainCanada,

Why do they complicate things or was it a valid request? I miss so much - sorry!

Thanks for the reply - only wanted to educate myself! (Now not sure if I am joking).

Sappho, I wouldn't recommend deleting threads and starting over as it could mean the previous research will need to be done again.

I'd suggest if a thread has been marked as answered in error that the poster goes to the first post on the thread, clicks Edit and then amends the title to add something like "Help still needed"

Good Idea MarieCeleste,

Still learning this thread business. It is always so difficult to know what one should do in such circumstances. I only wish Genes could think before they change anything.

I was just wanting to know for myself how the delete system worked. Perhaps genes could return to the old system.

Thanks again,

Sappho.
