Sounds like a great bit of work there! Guess you wouldn't consider posting
it here in txt format.

I don't have MS Word, either, Mike.

Ah, the bastids. Yet another way to "encourage" you to upgrade.
Personally I'm holding on at Win 2000 and may never go to
XP at all. I'm seriously considering going 100% linux.

Open office is one of the best reasons I know to abandon
Microsoft completely in favor of better operating systems. My only
complaint is that their developers conference is being held in
Slovenia this year. One would think they could do better.

I guess I was being too subtle. IMO drawing eyeballs and attention from this
forum to a personal one is counterproductive to this group and was trying to
get him to share instead of doing what he's doin' which is trying to draw
traffic to his group for some reason.

I think Piedmont (Mike?) understood that. :-D

I don't have a problem with Mike pointing out his website, forum,
or anything else. I don't think it'll have a detrimental effect
on this group either.

I think he'd be better off posting documents in a better format,
though. If you're going to run something from the web you'll
have a better chance if what you're posting is at least minimally
web friendly, which MS word definitely is not. Better to use
something like xhtml. Almost any WYSIWYG html tool can be setup
to generate well formed xhtml.

To Duwop,

No, I didn't , get that. As you say, "drawing traffic to his group" as
if it is a bad thing. I get no money, at all, for anyone to be on my
group, nor does anyone one else get money for perusing my group. I have
done my group strictly for the enjoyment of myself and to share my
enjoyment of Q, this is for me, my personal website.

The brine book cannot be sent here as it contains pictures and
formatting that would not be able to show here. Plus would take up a
large amount of bandwidth. To show how selfish I am is why I offered to
take my personal time to email to you or anyone else that couldn't or
didn't want to go to my group?

Than I wasted more time by emailing you directly to offer to send it to
you in another format of your choice. Yea boy, I sure must have some
ulterior motive for "drawing attention" to a free msn-group that
compiles a large amount of bbq links, recipes, and how to build your
cooker down loadable documents, free to anyone. You sure got me pegged!

Warmest Regards,

Mike (piedmont)

This may be a 'tight' group, but it is not the only one. I don't see
how Piedmont's actions are counterproductive.

I believe that Mike has mentioned in the past that his ISP does not
include the bianary groups. Therefore, if I 'member correctly) he
cannot post to ABF.

IMHO, Mike does 'share' in his own way. I hope you do not expect him
to be your clone.

I could post it by changing it to text format, but the document would
lose all of it's formatting. It is downloadable from the site by simply
opening it, it should open in your word processor where you can save it
and/or print it out.

If for some reason you cannot do that, I would be happy to e-mail to you
or anyone else.

Regards,

Mike (Piedont)

If it's on a website, why in Bob's name isn't it in html?

They're still webbages. And webbages should contain HTML.

You get there via URL, right? http://www (something)
That's a website.

However, from what you said in another response this thread, you don't
know how to do HTML. That's fine. (neither does MS Word--but at
least you know you don't know how)
