Actually Brian it was you that alerted me to this ng problem when you
pointed out a few days ago nothing from an entire thread had appeared in
WebNews.

I thought google groups was working OK but looks like Weatherman's post
didn't make it. However *searching* google groups hasn't worked correctly
for most of this year.

I hesitate to recommend a "best way". I use mainly Outlook Express in WinXP
and occasionally Windows Mail in Vista. I don't have Firefox but assume
you'd set up a news account in pretty much the same way -

Tools, Accounts, Add, News....
This sets up a new "account", in particular need to add as Server -
"msnews.microsoft.com" without quotes

complete other fields as required, display name, address (eg
" or if happy your full address (I include mine
disguised in the reply-to field).

After adding the account you should see "msnews.microsoft.com" as a folder,
select that, then find and subscribe to your favourite groups.

Regards,
Peter T

What is the best way (or ways) to read and post to this newsgroup?

I ordinarily use groups.google.com/group/
microsoft.public.excel.programming,
but it seems to have its problems, too.

How does one use Firefox?

Firefox is not a newsreader, it's a web browser. You could use it to access
Google, just as you can use any other web browser.
The news reader from the mozilla stable is Thunderbird.

Many of us use Outlook Express, but it's a matter of preference.

It's always asking Google such questions, but (as always) treat the answer
with caution depending on the source.

I use Thunderbird, a dedicated mail/news (NNTP) client. I don't use it
at all for mail, but it beats OE/WM and any of the web interfaces.
Especially the Microsoft web interface, which has always been a joke.

Any chance anyone can help me with this question.
I dont want to double post and I am not getting any reposnse

Ok I Have a bonus stucture,
It goes on (12) 4 week cycles and and sales have to increase over the period
to hit
loest level of bonus.
Ok to make it real easy, lets so
Cola colb colc cold cole
colf colg
Period / low produciton / bonus /mid produciton /bonus /High production / b
1 100 $10 bonus, 100 5000 $20 bonus 1000
$30 b
2 200
3


and lets say that sheet 2 A1= the period # and b2= the sales $
Pelase advsie


Hi, try this,
=IF(Sheet2!$B$2Sheet1!B2,IF(Sheet2!$B$2Sheet1!D2 ,Sheet1!C2,IF(Sheet2!$B$2Sheet1!F2,Sheet1!E2,Shee t1!G2)),"Lowest Level not Achieved")

Also make sure in your columns "Low", "Mid" and "High" that you put the
upper limit of that category's sales requirement e.g.

LOW MID HIGH
100 500 1000

If this helps please click "Yes"

so close,
But that two varible on sheet two;
A1 the periof of the bonus
b2 the amount on $ need to achieve the bonus.

this function works great for period 1, but there are 12 peiod.
morover a1 has text 1st, 2nd, 3rd and on...

The tbl arrey Sheet
col a; the period
col b, the lowest bonus scale
col c, the bonus amount

col d, the middle bonus scale
col e, the bonus amount
col f, the highest bonus scale
col g, the bonus amount

The tble woudl look like this
1st $3250 b$500 $4500 b$1000 $7500 b$2000
2nd$5000 b$500 $7000 b$1000 $10000 b$2000
3rd $600 b$500 $8000 b$1000 $14000 b$ 2000
and on

X-posted to .excel.programming, .misc, .charting, .worksheet.functions

These Excel groups, indeed all the "microsoft.public" groups are available
via the Communities web interface, "WebNews"

http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.aspx

- and via NTTP newsreaders, eg Outlook Express, Windows Mail, Firefox.
Most of the numerous web mirrors, eg Google-groups, can be considered as
NTTP. (In passing, some of the mirrors tend to give a misleading
impression they host these groups themselves.)

Currently, possibly since 13-Oct, most if not all NTTP posts are not being
made visible to WebNews. So anyone posting on WebNews probably will not
see replies from NTTP posters.

NTTP posters seem to be able to see WebNews posts.

A clue as to how the post was sent is to look at the headers, if you see
the following it's probably WebNews and the poster may not see your reply.
X-Newsreader: Microsoft CDO for Windows 2000

A long time ago I used OE. For at least the past several years I've
been using Google's front end. But the search problems over the past
several months have me looking for something that works. Searching
the group archives with confidence is a top priority for me.

It used to be OE would only "search" what you had downloaded locally,
that led to my using Google.

I guess I should give OE on XP another look, since that is what I use
for email.

What does Thunderbird do when searching? Does it search on a server
somewhere?

Brian -

As far as I know, T-bird also only searches what's been downloaded.
