HELP How to include earlier message in Reply

Postby lrrowe » Sun Feb 24, 2013 10:16 pm

I notice that many posters are able to include the post that they are replying to in the same box as their reply. I searched for a "Help" hint on this and could not find it.
Can someone tell me how to do it....I am sure I will be embarrassed afterwards as the method must be right in front of my nose.

Just hit the quote button in the upper right corner of the message you want to reply to. :o ..... ;)


P.S. That's two for two. So that must be the correct answer. :lol:

You can refine this, too. If you are already in the "post a reply" screen, you can scroll down, highlight the part of the message that you want to refer to, then hit quote and it will only bring that part into your new post.
