yoyo, yes, I'm familiar with that feature. All I meant to point out was that it is possible to quote if you want to quote... <br><br>but something that this forum lets you do is reply to a single post, witness the subject line of my post, it should say (re:yoyo52) in it somewhere.... thus if you want to know who I'm replying to in my post, you can reference it there....<br><br>It's just a different way of looking at things <br><br>***<br>"Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged." --Ronald Reagan

One of my favorite parts of The Sun Also Rises is the "don't be daunted" riff. So here's to not being daunted to both MacMinute and Appple <br><br>And that's true too.--Shakespeare, King Lear

OK guys, I have been following this thread and have heard your thoughts and comments -- all are appreciated.<br><br>I'm not sure how flexible some of these changes may be, but I will look into them and see what I can do. I really like this BB software, so I would like to stick with it if we can. IMHO, the pros outweigh the cons at this point.<br><br>Let me poke around and I'll see what we can do.<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Stan

Hi TreeBeard,<br><br>Just wanted to let you know that I am still working on the issue and will tackle it again when the expo concludes. In the meantime though, if you want a post deleted just let me know and I'd be happy to take care of it for you.<br><br>Thanks for the feedback!!<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Stan
