Hiya John

The posts are all numbered and have a 'quote' icon in the bottom right of each one.

If you go to the post you wish to reply to and click it's 'quote' button that should do the trick for you.

Press the 'quote' or 'quick reply' button which is at the bottom right of every post.

Of course if (like me) you are using the 'flat' view, it will appear at the end anyway.

or press the quick reply button next to the quote button :)

Either that or the quick reply button next to the quote button will do it too!

(but without the quote, as here...)

[Ben Thompson]

Oooo.... beat me to it... :(

[Tony F]

Blimey we're on the ball today :D

[Ben Thompson]

Work ain't terribly absorbing right now...

[John Williams]

OK...so what is the difference between "Quote" & "Quick reply"?

Is it just that nothin g gets quoted in the "Quick Reply" option?
(I'm figuring it out as I type and see what happens!)

Simple when you know how aint it!

(tried all sorts the other day!)

Now I feel just a little silly!
