Technically Challenged -

[DingoGirl]

I'm practically Amish when it comes to the computer...

I am wondering how to highlight and reply to part or parts of a post....when I hit reply, the whole message shows up.

Also, what does "DH" mean? People use it a lot and I can't figure it out - something to do wtih spouses, I think, but I've seen it used in other references also, maybe? Not sure....

Thanks!

Diognosed husband.

And don't know how to highlight passages either. So no help here. I can barely type without spell check.

DH=dear husband/DD=dear daughter/DS=dear son and so on....

To highlight a post (quote) hit 'reply' at the bottom right of the post you want to quote. The entire post will show up--to reply to entire post, just post your reply beneth it. To reply to a portion of the post, delete the parts you don't want, leaving the identifing lines above and below. Then just reply below.

DH can also can stand for Dermatitis Herpetiformis. There is a secion on this message board for it, too.

I thought you would hit "quote" to add the message you want to reply to, then delete the part of it you are not responding to. I don't understand about the reply button beside the quote button, does it let you reply just to that specific poster?

If you just hit "reply" it will quote the post and then you can delete whatever parts you dont want. I never use the "quote" button. If you dont want to bother with quotes just scroll down to the "add reply" button and you can reply w/out quotes.

So basically they do the same thing, I just won't have to scroll down and hit reply? That sounds much easier than the way I was doing it, and it also explains how some have been able to quote more than one person!
