Brian (with an i) I does when you post a message to a thread (as I am doing now) But when you start a thread, try as one might to introduce paragraphs, it all comes out continuously with no breaks - except punctuation.. Start one and see, len

Glitterbaby, It sorts the surnames by alphabetical order and you can sort by date. Steve.

I have, over the years, been told that I was as thick as two short planks. Usually by my Mother. I guess that she is right. I cant find where you are talking about. Can someone guide me through with baby steps. Thanks, Deb - Who DID pass the 11 plus.

Does anyone know how to arrange the text of a topic into paragraphs? Its very difficult reading a topic when its a bit on the long side. I find my attention span wavering as I try to stay focussed on a great wall of unbroken printed words. Len

Simon Thanks. As its fairly obvious that most of us are divvies, I would have thought that GR would have had a divvy guide to the site. There are lots of useful features and interesting info, its just none of us can find them/know about them! nell

Brian, I've just tried Topic Originator as well and it works! Steven, didn't know you could do it with contacts, will go and do that now as they always seem to be in a totally random order. That's TWO things I've learnt today! Mandy :)
