    Notifications???

    The Forum want's to send notifications? Does someone know what they are and why they're different than the e-mails?

    Re: Notifications???

    I'm guessing here, but in the middle of June there was a banner which appeared on the forum for several days encouraging people to sign up for this new facility - I remember that there were quite a few adverse comments about it as there was no way to decline and no way to dismiss the banner. It was eventually taken down. I suspect that the notifications would be via text messages to your mobile phone, rather than via emails, but this was never made clear.

    I have seen this (once, yesterday), and do know know what it is, but I have pushed the question to the tech team
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Recently it started "Popping up" again by me. But I think mostly when I was not logged in and/or on a computer I do not use much. Mostly I do not see it anymore I think on my main Computer when I am logged in
