Editing Post can Save you alot of extra Typing!

Hey listen up guys,
As slow as I am at typing there is nothing that pisses me off more than to begin typing up a long post, get over half way through it and look up and see a sign that says the server has been dropped and that my internet service cannot continue. I have to logg out and log back in just to start all over again.
BUT I found a way around it.
If you have a really long post, you might type several paragraphs, submitt the post and then come back in and edit it to finnish it up. If you do lose the server at least you can log back in and start where you last finished when you submitted the first several paragraphs or so before hitting the edit button. Just thought that I would mention this in case any of you have been having the same problem.

Hey Tobey

I type mine in word then copy and paste it on here hell of a lot easier!!

Billy

Unfortunately Billy My browerser while on the internet dose not have a paste icon for me to click onto. How do you go form word cut it and then paste it once you are back on the net?
Tobey

I,ll go through it

1 type the doc you want in word
2 run the cursor over the type so it becomes black
3 select copy from the top tool bar
4 minimize that screen
5 get onto the net and into AR select the forum and new thread
6 click into the area and go to the top of the tool bar and choose paste
7 your document should appear as the new thread

Hope it works bro I type mine up at home then put them on here at work

Billy

If you can't find a paste button either right click where you want the text to be and select paste or click once on the section you want the text to be in and hold down ctrl(control) and press v.

i so dam addcited to my computer that i had to have a cable modem. its on all the time, and never shuts down. besides that, it's fast as hell. some people are addcited to drinking or smoking. well message boards and the internet are mine

Thanks Billy and ptjason,
I have printed out both of your post and pinned them on the wall behind my computer.
Later,
Tobey

no prob man, that's what we are here for

Hey Dane, I'm with you. I had cable, and when I moved to Houston I had to either get cable or DSL. I will never do dial up again.

it's sooo worth it. it pays for it self since burn and sell cds for my boys

Once upon a time I use to 'dial up' but fortunately I was picked for a pilot project b4 cable was even released. Had it a year b4 it came out, i've been on it for 6 years now and will never go back!

Why couldn't I have been so lucky? I've only been using cable/DSL/T1 for the last 3 years. I won't even mess with a computer with dial up anymore. It is too painful to watch how slow it loads.

I guess I got lucky didn't I lol! :D Yeah dial up is SO SLOW my slowest download spees are 200kb/sec and i peak around 450 to 500 kb/sec depending on the site and its connection.

Tobey

Did it work OK the way I said ??

Billy

It sure did! Thanks
