    It is possible to turn on a Preview Message feature on these forums?

    It shouldn't take up a lot of resources on the server, and is nice to have so you can look over what you are submitting, before you submit it.

    What do you other members think of this idea?

    I don't really see why it would be very helpful.

    It also dont think it would be helpful because you can edit messages anyway if you dont like them.

    It would definitivly be of great help if we could get a print preview of the posted message so they print nicely on paper to be stored away or read in-depth when away of the computer.

    I don't think it would be helpfull but...

    One I think it woulb be helpfull was to let as choose (like an checkbox) a message for as to see new replies. For instance you see a message today with no replies but you would like to see when new replies come to it. Today you have to search for the message and sometimes you don't find it (lots of times).

    Hey Jorge
    actually I just mailed Vb-World a couple of days ago and asked for an option to monitor a special message.
    I havn't got a reply yet but hopefully they will figurre out how to make this possible for us.

    Thanks for all your comments! The VB Q and A has not been developed in-house, and us such we lack the knowledge to add more than simple tweaks to the system overall.

    However, I think that a feature to allow a visitor to monitor a certain topic is a great idea, and I've passed it on the the company who may add it in the future.

    All the best,

    James

    i think it would stop people's messages being submitted twice!
