I'd previously asked a question on here, but cannot find it by searching, nor
from my profile. Is there a way to find it at all rather than repost?

Well... I wish there were a really reliable way! There are several, but lately
none have been behaving very well. The first thing to try is
http://groups.google.com; select "Advanced Search", enter
microsoft.public.access in the group, and search for
(e-mail address removed) and/or for the subject of your post. Google has
recently been changing the groups interface and it's iffy! The alternative is
to use Microsoft's discussions page, but searching has never been very
reliable there.

There are quite a few websites which "repackage" newsgroups, among them are
accessmonster.com. Some of the other sites should show up in a Google search.
 
Try a search on Google groups. I have found it to be more reliable than the
search feature on the web page.
