If My modem is slow, so I don't think using RIP graphics would be an option for me. I don't think I want to find the mouse on the desk to push a button, when I could just press a key on the keyboard, in half the time. I haven't ever seen the RIP graphics, so I can't really comment, but I'm not a big fan of the mouse, it always seem quicker to type than it is to click.

While fiddling around trying to solve an upload problem, which turned out to be interference from another non-comm related program, I somehow did something that caused the macro toolbar at the bottom of the screen to go BLANK. Only the first macro key is labeled...with an A(?). All of the other nice, useful macro keys, such as Clear, Reset, Exit, etc., which were there when I first installed the program, have disappeared! I would like to have them back! ^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I've read the macro toolbar help files, but since taking up modeming, I have begun to suspect that I'm not as bright as I used to think I was. I selected the Default.Mac file, but nothing changed...still blank. Can you tell me how to engineer the return of my macro keys?! I will be most appreciative of your help.

Thanks Russ Russ, That would be a function of your text editor. Check the docs on how to import a file. You will likely have to mark the section containing the message to which you want to reply, save it as a separate file, then import that into the message base. I use LIST as a browser and SLED as a text editor. Here's how I do it. Call the SAVE message area into LIST. Mark the beginning of the text you want to capture with . Mark the end of the text you want to capture with . Hit and save the msg with an unique name. Now, in your OLR, go to "Enter mail in any area," and address your message. At the first line of the message, hit and give the path and filename of the text you want to import. Hit at beginning of text, cursor down to end and hit again to mark the block. HIt to return to the message, then hit to copy the message. If you now want to remove the marks from the block, hit . Now you have the old message and are ready to reply. Remember, unless you saved it in quoted format, you'll have to clarify what is old and what is the beginning of your reply. Hope this helps.
