Re: Bring back the old help format!

Hi John

my suggestion is to use

groups.google.co.uk
or
groups.google.com

and use advance search - the only pain is that you have to type
microsoft.public.excel*
into the "Return only messages from the newsgroup" section every time

however if you'ld like to let MS know what you think send them an email at
mswish@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
