Joe,

I was gonna reply privately but then I figured somebody else is probably wondering too. Using either the "quick reply" or the "reply" function, on the same tool bar line that you see "B" for bold and just past the number bullet list button, you will see a dimmed-out chain link icon (9th icon from the left or 5th icon from the right. That is the hypertext add function. But before it becomes active, you need to highlight the word or words you want a URL tied to. Just highlight the word(s) using the mouse pointer and the link button will become active. Press the button and a new dialog box will appear to add the web address in. You can also "command" the link to either open in the same or open in a new window using the drop down selection. Once a hot link exists, you can "break" the link using the next button to the right. Let me know if this solves it for you.

Dave

Excellent!

I like to use that feature as I write when I mention something that folks may not be familiar with. That way, all the user needs to do is click on the hypertext.

Have a GREAT day!

KaraSwims:

What's always been interesting to me is that there is no "rehab" when you are in a wheelchair from very early on in life...I was born with my disability and used a wheelchair full-time from about 1st grade on.

While I've had PT, they focused on my walking and really only taught me wheelchair handling skills...

I am in he similar boat as Kara. I have used a chair part time since I was in first grade and have never actually been taught wheelchair skills. I have been in PT all my life but that focused on my ability to walk and such. I have been using a chair fulltime since April and have had to figure out how to get around  my college campus on my own and deal with things that are inacessable. All I have earned has been trial and error and watching others as I have been an outpatient  patient at Shriners Hospital all my life. All I can say is alot is learned by trial and error.
