Tim,
I do appreciate your point - and thank you for the advice on Turnpike
Could you sort out a different point for me?
I'm quite new to GP-UK(Easter - how long am I allowed to be a novice?)
and to email in general:this is a serious question.
If you could look at the thread on hayfever, it has turned into two
separate threads.One is trying to look at the use of kenalog and other
hayfever treatments, and, i hope, as a secondary theme, explore the
possibility of looking athow we might use professional contact via GP-UK
to look at this type of problem.The other was a general chat.
Both are valid - but not the same.
I've seen people renaming threads, but what do you do if there is
divergance?
Another question about Turnpike - and other software.I keep losing
threads - and I'm beginning to suspect that the software may be
responsible.
When posting a reply in Turnpike, if the comment comes up"this
communication was not addressed to you:do you want to make a simple
reply/group reply" the default is "simple". This would (Ithink) not post
the reply to GP-UK .. and I completely lost the thread on my very early
question on my coding questionnaire!
Any ideas?
Mary
