You told me about dragging the message window border UPWARD, that worked

I made both MS subscribed ng's Dormant. On ACF, I selected "Not to make
Dormant", don't know that changed anything.
Afterward, ACF is still grey, and MS ng's are STILL black. ????
I was now, though, able to open ACF and get messages.

Thanks for your help, but think it's just about wrapped up. I have to
post in Xnews. When I looked for this thread in Xana, I got the last 300
messages. It showed most of the thread, but did not show your last
message, maybe there were 300 messages after yours, but I wonder.
Also in a thread, I have to click on each reply to see the answers to
them. It does not show all messages continuously in the thread at one
time ?
