      because I think you mean advise and advice.
      wink

      advice... like giving an opinion.  Do you want my advice?

      advise... warning, caution. I would advise you not to do that.

      or. Please be advised that what you are doing is dangerous.
      or. Please advise that person that that action is dangerous. big_smile

      Hope that helps. big_smile

        No.... Advice - noun. Advise - verb.

        Please advise. Active.

        Please be advised. Passive.

        Both sentences are the same and I don't understand why he made a thread for it.

      Think you got the word "advise" correct in this context.

      "Please be advised" = You are providing advice or information on a subject.

      "Please advise" = You are requesting advice or information on a subject.

      Hope that helps....

      Cheers!

        advise is not a request, it's an instruction, an action, a verb.

        I was about to write the same thing as this is true but read yours and thought I better second you.

        CEN7777 won't get confused if a few more people second this.

      Please be advised is like me or others being told something I/we need to know

      Please advise is like you asking for some advice on a particular subject
