You're using the web interface to newsgroups which provides a search tool.
Try a search there? E.g. press Alt-7 type your code and press Enter.
Hmm... too many hits? Try adding MVP as a filter term and retry...
Too many *old* hits? Unfortunately you can't sort by date with that tool
but you could, for example, use Ctrl-f (Find) to look for instances of 2007
just to pick recent discussions. Etc.
Even better you could you could use Google Groups as your search tool.
http://groups.google.com/groups/sear...t=0&scoring=d&
(Sample search using Boolean expression:
(0x80070424 OR 800700424) (MVP OR MSFT) group:microsoft.*
- sorted by Date to try to capture current thinking
)
Good luck
