**Chucks insert - Example of writing in the middle of a quoted post - Shouldn't do this!

I am sorry if these were NOT the kind of buttons you were 'thinking' of!:D

Just wanted to make sure what we were talking about! Got it now!:)
The 5 buttons I use are CTRL-C, CTRL-V, BACKSPACE (to erase text) and DELETE (also to erase text). Occasionally, I use CTRL-X to delete portions of text. This keeps editing things a little cleaner.

Using these 5 (not necessarily in that order) you can show only the part of a quote you are referring to, as the first and last part of your above post.

Using the Google tabs, you can have multiple tabs and windows of one post. You can also tab into other posts if you wish. Just put part of a quote - then answer that - then use another part of the quote from another tab and comment on it. Then combine the two tabs into one window using cut and paste. "Review" that complete window. Etc..Etc. When satisfied "Submit" it.

**The thing you shouldn't do is write in the middle of someone else's post. It comes out like the above where I typed into your quote.

P.S. Here's the middle part of your post. Used it for an example:

Unfortunately (for me) the rest of the world has learned to put up with it(they have never been exposed to any alternative).

An option is to save it as a .txt file from Word and upload that. This would only make sense if you don't have any pictures or formatting that your concerned about since .txt files don't allow the fancy stuff in a doc.

When I choose to write in the middle someone else's quote, I use a different color font.

LOL Go figure I need a tutorial to help me post mine! That's crazy huh.!
(probably something really easy I am forgetting to do.)

I will have it ready to post as soon as I can.

One way to do that would be to paste the screen shot into a photo editing program and then save it as a jpg. Then go to where you saved the jpg and cut and paste it into the Word document. I know of no way you can save a screen shot into Word DIRECTLY.

Hope this helps.

I am running Windows and have an application called "PrintScreen". If you have this, just double click on the ICON (after you have moved it to your DeskTop) and it will capture the screen. It is saved as a .jpg file.
