What you've done there is put '>' in front of the lines you've just typed - which is wrong. The software should automatically put them in front of the lines of the message you're quoting - you should never have to put them in manually. Your reply to Pip was fine (>'s in front of his text & not in front of yours) so it might just be OE screwing up. There is a bit of software called OE Quotefix which apparently fixes some bugs with OE - might be worth finding that & installing it. Or better yet, use a better usenet client - XanaNews is excellent. > > And what does the space--space do, I know it > > needs > deleting? It's --space & it basically means everything that follows it is a 'signature' & should be deleted from any message you reply to. Again, this is normally done automatically by the software. -- Krusty

I'll have a word with number 2 son who gives me these binary boxes to play with and get him to point me in the right direction. Thanks for your patience.

So that's a "No" then. At least we've sorted that out. btw, I don't think P38 is a good idea on an alloy tank, not when there's milk available at very little cost. (You may need to think about that) Now you can go about your business -- Beav
