Do you insert it before the sentence you want to change or after, highlight the section or not? Also, what's the easy way to view your own last posts?   Joan Citizen Username: Joancrystal Post Number: 4559 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Thursday, December 23, 2004 - 6:19 pm:        Mtierney: I can answer your first question. Let's say you want to write the word italic in italics. You would do the following: Click on the slanted "I" in the second box from the left directly above the dialog box. Type the word italic where you want it to appear. Click on the slanted I again. The word should look like this italic If you want to write a word or group of words in bold, you would click the B in the box closest to the left; to underline the text click the U and follow the same procedure. To write the word color in red (or any other color for that matter): Open the drop down menu labeled color Click on the color you want to use (in this case red). Type in the word color. Scroll up to the white box and click to turn off the red type. It should look like this: color Font and size work in the same way as color. Hope this helps.   Rastro Citizen Username: Rastro Post Number: 541 Registered: 5-2004 Posted on Monday, December 27, 2004 - 11:53 pm:        mtierney, as for seeing you last posts, if you go to your profile, it will show you the last (10?) opst you made, or at least link to them.
