I am sorry Mr Arnold, but I am new to this forum and don't understand what a "NG" is. Would you be so kind as to inform me where the appropriate place is for my post?

I must confess I am not computer savvy, but I do have a problem I would very
much like to solve. Detailed information would be helpful.
Thank you,

You'll want to post to a more appropriate NG like MS.Public.WindowsXP
