How can I search for all the questions that specifically I submitted? I tried
to use my display name and nothing returned.

Do yourself a BIG favour and ditch the horrible web interface. Use a news
reader instead.

I have read many posts about this issue. I may have a work around-
navigate to one question you posted=>click on your name after "By:"=>click
on the "Recent Posts by this user" in the upper right corner of the window
taht pops up=>then I saved that address in my favorites. When I use the
bookmark, it returns all my posts. (Maybe silly-but seems to work)

Use Google Groups to search the archives. Much easier. And then heed
Gordon's excellent advice and dump the web interface. UGH!

Outlook doesn't have a newsreader. Use Outlook Express if you have windows
XP or Windows Mail if you use Vista.

Thank you. I am not running Win7 on anything yet and didn't know what they
were using this time around.

Win 7 comes with nothing! No email client, no news reader!
