Msg 45096 is 12 line(s) on 08/28/91 from WARD CHRISTENSEN to MIKE REINHART re: R/THREAD MSGS No, I thought about it (message threads) and designed it, but never implemented it. CBBS is basically a piece of history - how it was 10 years ago. So just like a ride in a model T, it wouldn't be the same with an automatic transmission. HOWEVER, suppose the subject is "club meeting", you can do a summary s then 1,club meeting or s;1,club meeting, in which case each of the first 9 msgs found will be "marked" for retrieval (not retrEIval as I see you spelled it when looking in the HELP file), as #1, etc. Thus: r;#1 r;#3, etc. Kind of a kludge. Actually the most expert way to do it is: or;1,club meeting which says (O)ne line summary, with (R)etrieval, from message 1, about club meeting ;-) Msg 45097 is 03 line(s) on 08/30/91 from MARTIN SCHRADER to JERRY OLSEN re: R/ONLINE SERVICES If GEnie is the best thing going, I'll take the first passage to Venus.
