    2 quotes at a time?

    How can I quote two people at the same time in the same thread?

    You may need to manually type the quote tags in your reply.
    you start with a [ then type quote=persons name] then paste in what you would like to quote, then close the tag by typing [/quote]
    for example when I quoted you above it looks this but without the gaps.
    If you want to quote from different posts it might be an idea to write it in note pad first and copy and paste it into your post here.

    then repeat that quote tag as often as you like.
    hope this helps

    It's really much easier than that.
    Look to the right side of each post at the icon - That icon is a 'toggle switch'. Click it to 'highlight' that post, and as many others as you like. Then, when you click the 'Post Reply' button at the bottom left of the thread, all of the posts you selected will be inserted as quotes in the reply window.

    I knew there would have been as easy but just could not find it.

    You guys really need to get a little sense of adventure, and just push the big, shiny red buttons now and then just to see what happens. Must be the IT monkey in me, but I've been using that button for awhile. Sometimes being adventurous has its advantages.

    Heck - you don't even need to push the button - just let the mouse pointer hover over the button and a box with a nice text explanation of the button appears

    I PM'ed the mighty one and I've been enlightened since then!

    Can I have an Amen?

    OMG! Wish I'd known about that!

    Can anyone ever figure out what Hooch is talking about?

    So, if you felt the fool after 2 - 3 weeks... what about me using the manual method since 2007!

    If feel so much better now!

    But that leaves you with another dilemma... where to find real work?

    I feel terrible again!

    When do we get voice commands?

    I feel better again!

    This is exhausting!
