I have been playing around with this with no success so I thought I should ask. How do you quote someone in a post multiple times ? Below is an example that I picked out at random as an illustration of what I am trying to achieve.  Next question. How do you quote people from several different posts and incorporate the quotes into your post. I hope I am being clear. In other words lets say several of us are discussing the same subject and I would like to quote your opinion along with a couple of others in my post and then comment on each one. Any help would be most appreciated ! Thanks, Dennis  Edit: Spelling ( Multiple) Is there a way to edit the title of thread ?

To the left of the "QUOTE button in the bottom right corner of a post, you should see the +MQUOTE button. This is the multiple quote button which you can use to quote from different posts
Just hit this button of posts that you wish to quote, and then use the reply button.Does this help? This post has been edited by Mysterysgames: Jul 25 2009, 04:06 PM |

Well I don't know yet, I have not tried the obvious so far.
Please feel free to expound. I am thick headed sometimes and can use all the help I can get. Once I click on it, now what ? Dennis Thanks for your edit with the addional Information. I will give it a shot. Don't be surprised to see yourself multi- quoted shortly or my asking for more instructions. (likely) Thanks Mysterysgames! Dennis

Just hit the +MQUOTE button for those posts that you wish you quote.
Then just hit the FASTREPLY or ADDREPLY button, and the quotes will show up in your post. You can then add your message. Feel free to try it out in the test section: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/forum35.html |

Hehe thanks, I'm typing a lot as you can guess
 Good luck for trying out, and let me know if anything is still not clear

Yikes, I got the boot. I thought the XP forum was the right forum for this question. Sorry moderators.
It is very lonely in here. I have been sent to study hall ! Dennis

Any help would be most appreciated ! Thanks, Dennis For that you will need to use a tabbed browser and copy quotes one by one, and paste them in the reply you want. Be sure and cancel each quote after you copy it, before moving to the next quote to copy. QUOTE(Dennis H) Edit: Is there a way to edit the title of thread ?
