It must be me but I still have not figured out how to
search a newsgroup. I fill out the form but can't find a
button to begin the search. It's a pain to wade through
several pages looking for a previous message.
Any suggestions? Thanks,John
 
I use the little arrow on the right of the 'find' button, which gives a
simple box, and I pick 'message in this folder'. This usually does the
trick.

Hi John,

Setup and use a newsreader:

The web-based interface for accessing these support groups is very lacking
in search capabilities.

Setup a newsreader, or at least use the "new" improved web based format. See
links below.
Click on the links below, or copy and paste the links into the address box
if using the web based newsgroup.
For a better newsgroup experience. Setup a newsreader.
