Oops just realized a typo in the title...fat fingers...


Sorry KG, I KNOW that is one of your pet peeves - mine too! (...and I annoyed myself...:mad: )
 
I've done that too!! Greg? Ohhh Greg? Can we have a fix it button? :)
 
It's a function of the software - once the thread title is in the database, it's not really fixable (because of indexing, etc.). The only way to fix it is to delete the thread (considered rude if others have posted in it already) and start another.
 
Good to know! Oh well... :)
 
So I take it that there was no drawing for the laptop? Didn't get 2500 entries I guess since they didn't announce it....bummer! :cry:

That's based on databases at work, not specific info about the forum software. It's a total pain in the tush to change a key field in a database. I assumed that it's the same for the forum.

I would assume you are correct too Ann. You can change it if there are no posts, but once there are posts...and unfortunately I didn't catch my mistake until after there were posts.

Marlene - yeah it looks like they didn't quite reach 2500!
