« on: Feb 24, 2009, 10:31 PM »
Hello All,
I am trying to figure out how I can reply to a sender by using part of their reply as a quote and keep them as the author who has replied. I have seen this on the forums when their is discussion on some topic. I do not understand the directions for this on the site....computer illiterate :-\  Thanks for the help. FSHHED

Keep all of the info between the  first set of [], then edit the text prior to the second [.  Leave the [/quote] at the end, then put your reply after that. 

Here is an edit of your quoted text:

Try doing a "Reply with Quote" and play around with it using the preview button before posting.  That'll let you get it the way you want and you will be able to pick up the proper way to do it.
