> Help! No, you are not in the correct discussion group. This is a group for .NET
programming issues (hence the "dotnet" in the group name). You should try a
discussion group for Windows XP (which I'm guessing you meant when you typed
"XL home edition...").
Here's how to find an appropriate group.
As you appear to be using a web interface, start here to find an
appropriate
group:
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.aspx
Click the + beside your language. then scroll down to Windows. In Windows,
open the category for Windows XP. There, choose and appropriate group.
