Redcap Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Tried to 'search' for the answer, but when I click quote, nothing happens. Even if I hi-light text first. When I cut and paste, sometimes the text appears really large? What's happening??Regards,Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musicmonkey<ADDRESS><STRONG>Musicmonkey<STRONG><ADDRESS> Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 Bob, for some reason the quote doesn't show on the screen until you use the preview (or post) facility. I must admit having pressed 'quote' I expected to see the quote and to be able to edit it. I don't think you can edit it though, you just get the first line or so.

Redcap Posted September 28, 2004 Author Share Posted September 28, 2004 Hi,I think you can do it in 'preview' mode, just hi lite what you want to delete. I seem to recall that you could also select part of the message and press 'quote', but not sure if it works.Regards,Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 "Edit - No it doesn't work. Any other ideas anyone?"Until it gets fixed, just highlight the text you want - Copy, then create a standard reply Add Reply (not using Quote) then Paste the text here - in this one I've added the quotes around your text just to show it as a quote.Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
