I need the Quotations For Dummies approach....every time I try it is an exercise in frustration..... [/quote] Press quote in the post you want to quote, then leave everything in square brackets alone and take out any bits of the original post you don't want. Alternatively press the button with the speech bubble in it(just underneath font size when you're writing your reply) and put the text you want to quote inbetween the two sets of square brackets.... hope that helps
