04/26/2008 11:30 AM

Can anyone tell me how to remove a question once you have received some great answers, as I keep getting responses which I no longer requires

I think we covered it pretty well in the above forum.

There is no need for you to go back if you have the info you needed, however the rest of us may get some useful information or even some entertainment out of it as the conversation continues without you.

I suggest that you go to your subscribed discussions list and unsubscribe if you no longer wish to be notified of updates to the discussion..

When you post a question, it's not just for your own benefit. Hopefully others will read the thread at a later date and benefit. As with anything in cyberspace, once you hit 'return', you're committed. When posting a question, however specific to you it seems, hope that it will benefit someone else. Even if you no longer see the benefit of responses, someone else might. I'm not being dismissive of your point, but if some of the hugely generous people on CR4 answer a question, you should rejoice that it may help another. Keep posting questions, and be glad that it may have provided an answer for you and somebody else. There are people here who's hourly rate I couldn't afford - it's all free, and with humour at no extra charge. Say " yippee" and enjoy. If your point is not wanting to be construed as rude once you've left a thread, tell me nice and I might point you to some of the discussion on this. Most people like 'closure' on a discussion they enter - no easy solutions, but asking the question marks you out as a good person.

Just you issuing a question, hence it becomes the property of forum not you.
