Some of you have complained that the system logs you out if you take too long to compose a post to the Forum...
An easy way to avoid this is to write your text in Notepad or Microsoft Word (or some other text editor on your computer) and save it as a document. THEN log on to the Forum and open a new post or reply.
Re-open the document you just created on your computer and select all the text (usually by highlighting it all with a mouse "swipe") and right-click the mouse. a little sub-window will appear and give you the option to "copy" all the text you just highlighted/selected.
Then go back to the window you have open to enter the new post on the Forum. Click the area where you would normally start typing to get the cursor in there, then right-click the mouse and select "paste".
Like magic all the text you just copied from your document will be pasted into the body of the new post to the Forum.
Sounds harder than it really is.
If you have problems you can email, Private Message thru this Forum, or just give me a call... _________________ Gregg Smith
