Doug/Brian, here is the post I had made last month but in the wrong forum:

Is it possible to tweak the Advanced Search such that in the Search Options section, the default option to "Sort Results by" is "Last Posting Date"? I am guessing that for 99% of searches, the user would prefer to have the results filtered in reverse chronological order. This would be a nice little convenience to not have to select it from the drop down every time.

[Not going on vacation til NEXT week...]

When I go into Advanced Search, my Sort Results By defaults already are:
[Last Posting Date] [in Descending Order]

Don't know why yours would be any different. Try clicking "Reset Fields".

Possibly your settings are saved in a cookie? Try deleting your tugbbs cookies.

Thanks Doug. Your post got me to looking at this in more detail. I figured it out. At the bottom, there is a dropdown "Save Search Preferences". After changing to Last Posting Date, I clicked "Go" for Save Search Preferences and now it sticks. I'm in business!
