Default How do I find a question I posted earlier???

I posted a question a few weeks ago, but I am unable to find my posting. Is
there a way that I can view my question by my name since I am logged in?

Thanks!

There are a few ways. First off, if you can find a recent post by yourself,
(this one, for example) click on your name there. A window will pop up with
your profile, and one link on it will say "Recent posts by this user." This
will take you to a list of all of your recent posts.

If you didn't post recently, or can't find a recent post, you can search by
your name. If you know exactly which section your question was in, first at
least click on the appropriate program on the far left, just to get yourself
in the right group. (For example, if your question was posted in Word: New
users, click on Word in the list on the left.)

If you know exactly which board, click that specific board. Ex: If you know
for sure it was in Word: New users, you might as well click that one. Then,
you can perform a search near the top of the screen It right under the big
letters that say "Discussions in...." Type your name there as the search.
Next to that is "In:" which you can use to narrow your search down to a
specific board, or set it to all boards within a program (Ex: all boards
related to Word, such as general questions, new users, etc.). You can even
set it to just be Office all together, and it will search all of the boards.

Oh, one thing I forgot: With a really common name like Jim, you will probably
have some trouble. It will find anybody with Jim in their net name, and
something tells me that will probably be quite a few people.
