Windows 7: replying with solution

if after you get your problem fixed reply tell what worked?

Uhmm.. do you mean?

If you get a reply that worked, do you come back and tell us it worked?
If so then yes, you come back and let us know it worked, so if anybody else has the same problem, they know how to solve it.

+1. Asking for help, getting it and fixing the issue and then forgetting it is a bit selfish. Most often you are not alone with your problem, knowing what helped you can be most valuable information to the others.

Punctuation is you best friend.

where do you suggest we post "fix" replies . solved my own and posted on my own thread

Yes just post back to the thread where the question was asked, and reply with the solution that worked whether you fixed it yourself or someone else posted the solution. That way it helps others with the same problem.
