    Oops didn't mean to laugh
    Pls remember Debt-Free Wannabee's for support and help not judgement

    so we shouldn't judge Lula just cos she can't double quote!

    Yes I am :(.

    It all goes wrong after I click back on the browser thingy, the bit I've already quoted just disappears :confused: .

    Have decided that it's one of 2 things : 1 - I really am thick :o :rotfl: or 2 - My pc really is thick/broken/bluddy awkward.

    humph - oh well snows nearly all melted & I can go back to loving my car again instead :rolleyes:

    Are you holding down theCRTL button when you press C

    Have you tried using your mouse instead ?
    Highlight textpress and hold left mouse botton
    right click in reply box and paste

    I'm not right good at double quoteing either

    When you go to reply do you use the post quick reply button, if so use
    the other one instead Go Advanced and theres a quote button that looks like this. quote.gif that allows you to put
    quotes in so what you could do is copy the text and put it between the quotes in the box.

    So if you wanted to quote what i said in a post say this "Clios are great cars"
    you would highlight all that text then do control & c then put it between the quotes and press control and v.
    Do that twice and your done. Make sure you change the 2nd quote text to what ever you want..

    quote 1 clios are great cars

    quote 2 soopa doopa space troopa

    Ohhhhhh thanks guys,

    you are both :A but lets face it ... I am the intellectual equivalent of 2 short planks when it comes to techno stuff :o I've tried all of your suggestions and just have to accept that on this one & only this one occasion I bow to your gender superiorityness when it comes to geeky things.

    I'm quite good at spelling & making up new words though & have completely mastered Twinks hobnobs :D
