    I just copy and paste whatever I want into a document and save it that way.

    Click on the post number with the hash sign in the top right hand corner. That will open the post you want in a separate window. Then right click on the post which will give you a drop down menu containing the print option.

    Hi Nikki,
    I just tried what you said but got an empty sheet, it won't let me do it this way, the bit I wanted came up blank, but thanks anyway.

    thread tools option doesn't come up when you have a single post in front of you.

    Odd. I've just tried my method again, and it does work for me. At what stage in the process do you get the blank page?

    Yes, I clicked thread tools when there was only one post in the thread, it's different now.

    many thanks to everyone who posted and tried to help me out, my daughter taught me how to past into a word document so can now do it without even still referring to notes I made. thanks once again.
