. . . I'm probably being divvy and this will be old news; I've only just realised that if you click on, for example, the word 'Topic' at the top of the list, the threads will be sorted alphabetically. Similarly with 'Topic Originator' which sorts the treads into each member's name, listed alphabetically. You probably knew that already, but if not it could help, in addition to the Search facility, if you're trying to locate a thread that's moved well down the pages.

Brian, I've just tried Topic Originator as well and it works! Steven, didn't know you could do it with contacts, will go and do that now as they always seem to be in a totally random order. That's TWO things I've learnt today! Mandy :)
