I want to make a scrap book/photo album (yes, on paper, I’m oldfashioned that way) and I wanted to include a print-out with the thread titles I posted over the last ten years. I figured they paint just as well a picture of my life the last ten years as would the more traditional holiday pictures. I’ve experimented for a while with calling up “user CP” and copying and pasting in Word or Excel, but it becomes a big mess every time. Does anyone know an easier and faster way? ---

I don’t see any way to do it. ---

Well, if you just want a list, not a database, you could just take a screenshot and paste it in Paint. Trim the extraneous bits - header, sidebars, etc. Viola - a list. Sure, it’s an image file, but it’s a list. If you wish to extract data, then you will need someone with better insight. I would think there’s a way to export data from the SD servers as some sort of delineated list, but it’s outside my skillset. Maybe xash would have an idea. ---

Why not just use the Search function? Go to Advanced Search, Search by User Name, enter your User Name and select Find Threads Started by User. It will display a list of every thread you’ve started, complete with title; date, time and respondent of the last post; number of replies and views; and the forum. Granted, you’ll have to print each page of search results (11 pages in your case). Would this not suffice? ---

:smack: Google Chrome has a function to print each page I want. And here I have been making screendumps and transferring them to paint all my life. Thanks all! ---

So… I was quietly celebrating my ten-year anniversary as a Doper all by myself, and then you guys show up in a bunch, handing out advice in varying degrees of usefullness, bitching about interpunction, offering virtual pie (or at least, the suggestion of virtual pie) and then snatching it away again. Sniff… I couldn’t have wished for a more typical or better Doper anniversary. You guys are the best! 😃 :: hides away remains of virtual pie for when everyone buggers off::
