Can anyone point me in the direction of a guide for coding on this forum?

In particular I would like to know how to link individual posts from a thread if such a thing is possible?  I know it is on other forums so I'm hoping...

Thanks!

Thanks!

I think I understand all that, is there an easy way to find the msg number other than first doing a 'quote post'?  It doesn't really matter but I'm all for shortcuts :D

Each of the posts has the subject line as a direct link. The process may vary based on your browser/OS, for me it's as simple as right-clicking on the subject line link and copying the shortcut.
Power corrupts.
Absolute power is kinda neat.
