They were of no use. What does "of no use" mean?

Welcome to the forum.

It is the same as "useless" (adjective).

Note my amendments to your post. Remember the rules of written English:

- Start every sentence with a capital letter.
- End every sentence with a single, appropriate punctuation mark.
- Do not put a space before a full stop, comma, question mark or exclamation mark.
- Always put a space after a full stop, comma, question mark or exclamation mark.
- Enclose words you are querying inside quotation marks "like this" or put them in italics like this.​

Thank u so much

Thank you so much.

You will notice that rule #2 on the list I gave was "End every sentence with a single, appropriate punctuation mark". Even a sentence as short as "Thanks" or "Thank you" requires a final punctuation mark.

Note that "u" is not a word. It's "you". Please use only full, standard English words on the forum.

In addition, there is no need to write a new post to say thank you to anyone. In the bottom left-hand corner of every post is a "Thanks" button. Click that to say thank you.
