Subject Posting Etiquette From Andy Taylor <andy.taylor@cloud15.uk> Date Fri, 17 Aug 2018 03:59:37 -0400 Newsgroups dbase.getting-started This is a new thread because I don't like thread drift. To see the original discussion see the thread "Delete (all) in a form". I would like to suggest to all that for ease of reading threads please either: A) post your reply to a thread at the top of your post, or B) post your reply to the bottom of a post and remove anything in the original post that is not relevant to your reply.   Method a) is particularly suitable for quick points to be added to a discussion. Method b) is particularly suitable for multiple points to be responded to within one reply. In my view always posting at the bottom of a thread and not deleting irrelevant material just leads to thread bloat and should be avoided.  I would therefore normally post at the top of a thread unless I am responding to multiple points. Anyone who wishes to please discuss, particularly if you prefer the convention of replies at the bottom of threads. Andy :-)
