Daulton, we are not able to see the document being linked to through "BOX" unless we somehow subscribe to their service. Can you save the file to the files section of Meetup and then update your discussion item, replacing the current link with a new link directly to the file on Meetup. Thanks, Collins

I was able to download the Social_Networking.doc from the Social Networking – links, articles link this morning.

Also, I will have to check out the free file storage services of https://www.box.net/s... for future use.

Thanks Daulton!
