    Do the answers have to be in capitals?

    Hi Darkhawk,

    It doesn't specify in the mag whether they should be or not so I'm afraid I can't answer your question. My own personal opinion would be it probably wouldn't matter as long as the answers are correct but I could be completely wrong!

    There's an email address in the mag which is pickmeup@ipcmedia.com if you want to drop them an email or you could ask on their facebook page which is here if your on facebook.

    Alison :)

    That is interesting because I double-click on the answer word (unless if it's more than one word which I had to drag over words), Then copy the word/s.

    Click another tab before paste the word/s into the boxes and click MSE tab back, do it repeat till completed filled the boxes (sometime ignore any box if I do not want that prize such as "Win a Makeover!":p)

    So if OPs already typed all answer words into capitals so how make it into uncaptial without do the typing all down yourself?

    Wonder if MSErs may have quickier way to do that instead copy and paste each word that what I had been doing since??
