When I search for questions on relationships -- trying to find a question I
posted -- the order of the results is not chronological -- skips around and
includes items posted back in 2005 near the top. Most lists are
chronologically ordered from most recent. I like that and hate this one! I
cannot find my question!

Microsoft's webpage is not very well designed, unfortunately - but
fortunately, it's not the only way to view newsgroups!

Try going to http://groups.google.com/advanced_search?q=& and entering the
desired newsgroups (e.g. microsoft.public.access for this group, or
microsoft.public.access.gettingstarted for the "New Users" group, or
microsoft.public.access.* for all of the Access groups) in the Newsgroups
line; you can search for your posting address in the Author field, or for
specific subjects or message contents. Unlike the MS website, you *can*
control the sort order of results.

Thanks. This problem caused me to learn to find a list of my own postings so
was able to find it that way.
