I, like apparently Ragdyer, see the Subject line as this...

No apology necessary, but yet another reason for using the newsgroup
directly, and not using Microsoft's web interface to the group.

I wonder why the web interface imposes a limit on the number of characters
(I guess that it what the limitation is) it displays in the Subject line...
it is not like I would think there would be a requirement for that or
anything.

Just a field on a web page, gotta be a limit someplace for everything.

I'm not a web designer (obviously from my last comments), but could they
have used a TextBox control (or some other device) which would allow you to
display a portion of the text in it and, if you wanted to see the rest,
click into it and arrow into the portion of text that didn't fit in
displayed width?

Just had to make me open the darn web page to look, didn't ya. What I
can see is the view is what is "truncated", I don't know where the
cutoff is , 255 chars or what for the field. But if one "drags" the pane
size wider, you will see more of the subject, constrained by the width
of the pane that you can configure in your browser window. Now I'm
heading back to my newsgroup reader, bah!

And you just had to make me open the darn web page to look, didn't ya?<g>
First thing I noticed is that, unless I went to the wrong place, this
newsgroup didn't even exist in the web interface. Okay, putting that aside,
I see what you mean about the field being dependent on the width of the
pane; however, it would seem that there is some kind of limit on the number
of characters (less than 255 for sure) when the message gets posted... or
else why would the subject line appear truncated in our newsgroup readers?
Well, whatever, obviously we are not going to solve the problem... we'll
just have to put up with it until everyone learns the benefit of using
*real* newsgroup readers.<g>

Okay, that is why I missed it... the name is different. The web page calls
it "Excel General Questions" and my newsgroup reader calls it "excel.misc"

Oh, I just used Microsoft "search" for "Excel Discussions" and popped
the link that had excel.misc in it open, then scrolled to look at the
subject for this thread.
