I think it would be helpfule if these forums were divided up some. Clip Libraries and Macros could use their own forum.

With the quite low traffic that we have here splitting up the forum does not make any sense to me.

I agree with Andreas. It would be too much hassel to move from one forum to another.

I've had good results with the forum's search link in finding specific information.

I don't think it would be exteremly useful either since there are so many questions asked without regard to the topic. It is also difficult to decide which specialized forum to ask a question in. Too often, a bewildered seeker will inadvertantly spam all of them to be sure his question is seen by the right persons.

Ive had a hell of a time trying to wade through all sorts of things from macros to regexp. I know this isnt a large forum, but a bit of work now could make things easier later

I think it would make sense to break thing up
Macro
Regexp
ClipLib
Setup


just my 2cents!

Brendan, just an extreme example.

I want to create a macro that uses a regex and a clipping from the ClipLib and now I want to setup a shortcut key for this macro as well.

Because it is about a macro, I should post in your macro section.
Because a regex is involved, I should post in your regex section.
Because a clipping is involved, I should post in your cliplib section.
Because setting up is involved, I should post in the setup section.

No, I am still not convinced that this forum should be split.
We have about 3 weeks postings on one page - this is very low level volume...
Even if each posting could be identified as belonging to exactly one section, it is not worth the trouble. IMHO.
