Hi all,

Doing a search for quote brings up 27 pages of quotes.

What do I type in the msg box so that I can quote a line of another post.

Apologies if this has been covered before.

Highlight the text then click the left icon above that post. However it doesn't work for posts that have been archived, ie rolled over due to the number of posts in that thread.

In which case, just use your normal cut and paste and do the best you can.

Does not work on all browsers. Using " \ quote { } " (spaces added so it appears here) will format the text but not take the person's name of course.

If you sit your mouse on the Quote button for a second, you should get a little popup "Quote highlighted text". This is a clue :-)

Another trick, on any of the main Topic or Thread list windows, if you click in the very left column next to what you want to see (the same column that shows "New" posts) it will auto open in a New window.

Haha me too! But you've been posting for quite a while now I had to learn this on my own (I was just clicking every single icon in the post)
