I see in some posts inwhich a member has included a quote from another poster .. It will read above the quote "originally posted by so-and-so" ..or something like this. When I quote someone using the "quote" key, it doesn't say this. How I can quote someone so that their name will be attached? tia

ok lol.. I have never used that quote button before.. have never paid any attention to it. I always just highlighted the words I wanted to quote, clicked copy.. then hit the reply button.. then hit the Quote button ..then pasted the words in the box. You would think after 2 years I would have figured out there was an easier way!

Thank you!

I learn new things from everyone here, too - it's fun learning new ways to do the "same-ol'-same-ol'" ;cool:
