Renaming Favourites

[NBVC]

Can I ask a stupid question?

Is it possible to rename topics in my "Favourites" file? Currently they are named as the Original Poster titled his/her post. As everyone has seen, that title very rarely is descriptive enough to know what the exact content of the thread is. So it would be nice if there was a way to either change the name or add a description or something for ease of finding a specific favourite topic.

Thanks.

Nope, sorry.

You could bookmark in your browser and call the thread whatever you want, though. You could even create a folder in your bookmarks called 'MrExcel Favourites' or something to organize to a greater extent.

Thanks Nate.

I expected I wasn't going to able to do it within the forum. But, the bookmark idea is great. Don't know why I didn't come with it myself. Such a simple work-around.

EDIT:

The only thing with the bookmark alternative is that you have to set up/update those bookmarks at home and work and wherever else you may sign in to MrExcel.

You're welcome.

Alternative #2:

I often E-Mail myself links, that I can access anywhere. This is where Google's email offering, GMail, is really slick.

All messages with the same subject are stored/grouped as a single thread, much like how discussion threads here are grouped. So, if you had a new link, if you send yourself a new e-mail with the same subject, it would be grouped with the rest.

And the Search Engine on GMail is really good, as well.

Thanks again, Nate

I will definitely look into that alternative.
