This takes you to a list of all discussions, but more importantly, there is a "search box" that only looks for your topic within this group instead of all of Connect. Type in your key words and a list pops us.
Next tip - the larger the comment number at the end of a link, the newer the comment.
If a discussion seems "old" but has multiple pages, jump to the newest posts by clicking below the initial post & choose "Newest to Oldest" - you will see the more recent discussion.
Final tip - When you find a helpful tip, and would like more info, use the "Reply" button at the end of that comment respond. The person who sent it will be notified in their daily digest that someone has responded.
I hope all of this helps you to "Connect" with others like us - we have awesome members who can answer so many of your questions.
