You don't have to copy everything. Just be careful with your highlighting. I highlighted and copied the text above straight out of your post and then pasted it here, no problem.

AS THE MEERKAT SAYS "SIMPLES"

Scotty Beam me up!

midge25, The easiest way I've found to "copy" text from this and other Forums is by clicking the Quote button. Clicking the Quote button brings up all the text in a particular post. Once the screen appears, you can Copy the text by left-clicking your computer mouse and holding the left-click button down. Continue to hold the left-click button down and drag the computer mouse over the text you wish to copy. It will be highlighted in blue. Once the text is highlighted in blue you can then place the computer mouse over the highlighted text. Simply use the right-click button and choose "Copy". You can then "Paste" that text into another post you make.

Best Magical Regards,
