    How do you search for a thread you started and someone else replied to?

    I would like to find a thread that I know I started and XYZ replied to. Is there a way to do that?

    Thanks,
    Dave

    any chance you remember the name of the thread? you could click on your name in this thread, select "More posts by daviddoria" then look through the list... other than that, unless you also subscribed to the thread (which I think you would if you were the thread starter) ... you might be able to find it that way.

    Yea unfortunately I didn't remember the name of the thread. But thats a good idea to search by subscriptions, at least it'll narrow down the search a bit.
