An individual posted a new thread today (3/14/08) (believe it was in the General Section) asking for a help with a UDF that wouldn't process. He received one response, then I came in with another response which I later edited to include more info. Saved it, checked back to ensure it was what I wanted -- it was.

Closed the browser, shut down the computer. When I later reopened this site, the thread was missing entirely. Did a search on my recent posts -- it's not there.

I'm baffled -- how does a thing like that work?

The original poster (OP) had deleted it. I restored it.

Thanks Bob L. --

Guess I was confused. Was under the impression that a originator could delete a thread only up until there were responses.

Best wishes - Bob A.

Nope, the way it works is the poster of a post can delete their posts. If it is the first post of a thread, and they delete it, the whole thread is deleted.
