I have tried several ways to include quotes the proper way in a reply. None worked. Can someone please describe the correct procedure for me/maybe others on how to do this? Thanks. Doug

In the original post that you want to quote, to the right of the thread subject, is a link that says "QUOTE". Instead of clicking on "POST REPLY", click on this link and the original post will appear in a quote box in your reply. You can then delete any text in the original post that you desire.

I can't get a quote box to come up Ernie, Just get the original text with "quote" in front of the text and at the end, but no quote box. I don't know what is going on. Confused

The "box" will only show up in the forum, or if you "preview" the post.. What you see as you type your reply is called BBCode.

Follow this link to learn more about quoting with BBCode.

This is a test for quote.

Ha! I think I got it thanks to you Ernie. Maybe this helps others too.
