so many people ask questions here, thats what the site is for !!!,but i ve noticed that hardly anyone ever comes back to say what the final solution to the problem was. would be nice to have a final solution to some of these problems, but thats just my opinion

    Most don't even come back and thank people for their responses and opinions. Nature of the the internet beast I suppose.

    Occasionally we get follow-ups. I try and thank them for it. After that, well, I think most of us help to be helpful, not to earn thanks. It's nice, to be sure, but not strictly required as it were.

    I always get a kick out of the folks that act like this is a service provided for them, and they're entitled too it. After all, Dan pays you guys twice as much as he pays me. :wink:

    I would say 50/50..

    I can't believe that 100% don't find the information helpful. This site is a Bellwether of web sites.

    Hello, Looking at it another way, (silver lining?) everybody else who reads the thread gets to hear the discussion and learn from it. We're all in a way, teaching each other what we know, so even if the OP never returns, there is still a big benefit. B)

    Yours, Larry

    Indeed. It is a rare thread that I don't learn something from -- and most of them I learn a lot from!

    How many people call their doctors after they are well and thank them for their advice? I do. It's how they get feed back as to whether or not their recommendations are correct. They too appreciate it.

    Well said Larry. It's not so much the benefit to the original poster, but the unseen benefits to people who are experiencing the same problems. Thank goodness for Google...
