    Can any one please take the time to explain to a computer novice like me how you multi quote when repyling to various posts on a thread?
    Thank you in advance

    Use the quote button on each post that you want to quote and either cut and paste them into one of the quote boxes that you have opened up, or into Word or any text editor.

    For example, if you want to quote two posts in one reply, click quote on one and cut it, then click quote on the second post and paste the first one above or below it.

    Then you can edit away and add your own words.

    If you use Word, cut and paste the finished work back into one of the quote boxes and submit it.

    Word is probaby easier than using the MSE editing in the quote boxes.


    Testing to see if I can do it properly.
  • Will do, who's Glad and how do I ask!:D

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Well you did say that you're a novice :D

    Glad is the Board Guide. Click here to go to her account, and then send her a PM (private message).

    It'll help if you include the web address of this thread, too.

    I have to say I'm LMAO cos I'm gettin more confused by the second! hehe.. Sorry did I say novice.. I ment no hoper :rotfl: :rotfl:
    You have already shown you can quote, okay, open up another MSE page, this is done by right clicking on a link to a thread and then clicking on "open in new window" in the drop down list, any MSE link will do, now supposing you wanted to add another quote once you have already done one, just leave it and go to another thread using the second MSE page, get the quote by copying it and pasting it in the other page ( already open on the message page) Gawwwwwd .. I'm losing the will to live. :rotfl:

    EDIT .... I must keep up ... just noticed you have succeeded. Hooray.!!!

    Each entry on a board is a thread to that subject, if you want to open it up in another window then just right click on it and choose "open in new window" from the drop down list, that way you get two pages of MSE at once and you can alternate between them.
