1. If you posted a comment in the thread go to your posts in "My Profile" at the top of any page and scroll through them.

2. Also try "advanced search". If you type in a reference word or what the subject is you might find it that way.

3. Ask the people right here on the QB what you are looking for. You would be surprised what they can find!

Good luck in your search.
peace

Archives can be accessed by scrolling to the bottom of any page in the center of the brown menu bar

yes, that's what I did, but what's the next step? The screen that comes up lists forums, I clicked on main, which was what I wanted, but then...wow. Numbers, titles ?. If I want a specific date of the entire digest can I do that, and how?

if you use the normal Advanced search and click on the left tab there, you can limit your search by date and forum. In the archives, you would have to guess at the date and click on that page at the top of the forum... not the easy way.
