I use the Board's Advanced Search to find posts with 0 replies.

Sometimes after I try to update the search results, I'll notice a message in the upper right part of the page that says something like...

Search took 5.40 seconds; generated 88 minute(s) ago.

Is there a reason that the Board software doesn't generate a new search? I've taken to slightly modifying my search criteria to get an update, but perhaps I'm missing something obvious here. :confused:
 
I'm not sure why it does that but are you aware of 'Quick Links|Unanswered Threads' for getting such a list? (though I think it might only search the Excel Questions forum)

Yes, I've tried the Unanswered Threads link; however it doesn't seem to go back very far..perhaps 12 hours.

I usually troll the 18-24 hour time span :)

Good to know I wasn't missing something obvious on the advanced search.

Thank you for your reply, Peter.
 
When going to the Unanswered threads, near the bottom find display options. There you will find options to specify how "old" of posts to look for.
 
I hadn't seen that the few times that I tried "Unanswered Threads".
Thanks Repairman615.
