Have read it, its no help - the most common answer on this site is that someone is posting in the wrong forum - and yet, SAP, Oracle, and most of our other vendors allow support volunteers themselves to move questions - Microsoft doesnt do that - why I have Is pure idiocy - but for your info, we DO have one, I just thought with the simplicity of the question, someone up here would have the answer.Īs for thousands of forums and "where is the forum for"?
