I think I can recall that offer, but I'd put this thread to the back of my mind until recently when it started generating more traffic due to the impending finish line approaching.

Anyways, congratulations.

Cheers Norie!


Greg,

Thanks for the info. I just thought it would be a sneaky little counter tucked away somewhere - I had no idea you could only get it by comparing the time to your screenshot...

very sporting of you, Greg, to not make a quick post once you saw 999,999

looking @ timestamps and using the addresses of posts, it looks like at the following users were around during post 1,000,000

Hello,

So it was finally achieved, well done to all who have helped here.

Well done Dominic, good to see an Englishman achieve the millionth post.

It still amazes me how all the people here are willing to offer advice and help, especially when you consider it is all for free.

Here's to the next million.

P.S. Bill Jelen, did you have any idea how successful this site would be. I'm just awfully glad that you did. ray: ray:

The 2 millionth post will be the 8th May 2009.

Wow - the big 1 millionth post! Amazing.

For being the 1 millionth post, DominicB gets to choose any item from the MrExcel store or the CafePress MrExcel store.

XLGibbs with the guess of Aug 16 was the closest guess. Again - choose any item from the MrExcel store or the CafePress MrExcel store.
1,000,000!

I have been so busy doing other things for several months, I got curious and started looking into this from way back when...

I got the closest guess--within 2 days. My calculations were pretty accurate then.. Pretty cool.. Wish I had noticed about oh, 5 months ago...LOL
