Microsoft has expanded its online services to a non-proprietary platform
with the addition of no-charge Microsoft-sponsored NNTP newsgroups on the
Internet. Previously, Microsoft-sponsored electronic service forums were
limited to users of CompuServe and MSN. With the creation of these
newsgroups, users of Microsoft Access can obtain online service support
on the Microsoft Support Web site at
http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx
(http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx)
by using any Internet service provider.
Microsoft technical communities provide opportunities to interact with Microsoft employees, experts, and your peers in order to share knowledge and news about Microsoft products and related technologies. These technical communities provide a variety of ways to access answers to questions, to access solutions to problems, and to share your own expertise. These technical communities are located at the following Microsoft Web site: http://www.microsoft.com/communities
