Dan,
Thanks for your answer. I think that I wasn't clear in my original suggestion. I'm not looking for a way to search all forums, I used that as a way to describe the functionality of my suggestion. Let me try again and see if I can do a better job this time.
Can FT create for each user a virtual forum that will contain all the topics to which the user contributed. One way to accomplish this is to keep a list of pointers all the topics each user participated in. Every time a user posts to a new topic, a pointer to that topic will be added to the user's list. While this solution will require storage space, it will accomplish what I'm suggesting without the need to perform any searches.
I have to admit that I have no idea how much storage space this will require nor do I know if the software you are using can be modified to accomplish this.
Thanks for your time.
