I am not permitted to access google groups to view my and other peoples history

I would like to be able to search old news group posts for obth excel and
access. ( I am using version 2000)

Can someone suggest to me alternatives.

I feel this is a great tool but I can't get to it. As far as I know the only
way to get to old posts is via google.

I would liek to get my posts from the last 5 to 7 years if possible.
Thanks for your time
 
Thanks but I must ask what other post - have I foregotten about a post?

How do I find an old post , how do I get to my posts.

This new newsgroup interface is giving me a great deal of trouble - the
window to the right is always blowing away the window in the middle and I
always need to resize

any suggestions - it is horrible to work with
