Re: How to upload ? (IE 6.0 SP1)

Jon, thanks for your response. First, I am talking exclusively about
documents. Second, yes, I had already read the help which you have
thoughtfully copied into your post (thanks) and I had chosen *not* to
download more software. Third, I've looked at the page
http://www.msnusers.com/MyStorage.msnw?comm=hgq0p3dfjn4a0j7jub3k8i1v14&type=files
again today and I see a "File Deletion Tool" on the page but I do not see any
indication of any way to add or upload files. You wrote "Adding photos or
documents to MSN Groups online storage is done through their web interface"
What is this "web interface"? Is it Internet Exporer? The OLH says "...you
can still upload photos and files individually using your browser's standard
upload tools." What are these "standard upload tools"? How or where do I
find them? I have looked and haven't seen hide nor hair of them. What am I
doing wrong?
