So, maybe the forum doesn't need an upgrade after all.




Thanks Pat. I should have caught on I guess since I did see the quotes above. What you describe does match the format of the other forums I am use to which has the buttons on my form rather than on the other person's post. On those forums I highlight the text I want, click the quote button and paste between the HTML codes.

I gave this format another shot by highlighting the text I want to quote and it seems to quote the whole post (which I do not want and which happened last time now that I remember it). I guess I should have been more precise in asking if there was a way to get the qoute button on my form.

Hi Bob. As far as criticizing programming I do not see it that way. Maybe that is because I left guitar teaching at age 26 to become a programmer and I have been programming 31 years. I have tones of flaws in my programs and I have a huge list of improvements (which I can not keep up with) but I do not make the mistake of confusing that list with attacking my total person (I do not overgeneralize in other words). Programmers/designers know this and accept this. They welcome any input that can make their programs and design better. If they do not think this way someone else says "I can do better" and before they know it there are better products out there. The very best programmers thirst for feedback (I wish I could get feedback on my database program). Having said that I think it is great that you are defending the programmers with such strength. Your right, normally they get bashed. So thanks for defending programmers (since I am more of a programmer these days than a guitarist and I wish I could play like I use to).

Anyway, I am off topic. LOL. I will post this and keep working at this quote button that is in a location I am not use to. I am assuming there is a way to use the button to quote a portion of text. You might have guessed that my 31 years of programming did not involve learning HTML.
