PCWorks: Re: Double spacing in posting

Look at that; I accidently clicked "Send" before
I finished (an argument for
using Word first (smile). I'll continue:

All right, I follow what you are saying now, and copying
from MSWord is out.
I'm not doing it here and didn't in my last posting
(Notepad+ etc). I do get
the digest PCWorks and sometimes it seemed easier to just
copy the thread and
make whatever response in MSWord first. Or I would use Word
just to initiate a
question if I thought it would be a lenghty one. Now I'll
know better. And
using the Drafts for previewing" is an excellent idea.
I do try to avoid that
jumbled up thread that we see so often in responses; that's
just another quirk
of mine. Thank you again, Clint --- Harold

> MSword???  Geeeze, what on Earth are you doing??  See
my last post on how to
reply to posts.  In addition to what I said in it, like I
said above,
regardless of what you do to posts font or style wise, it's
not going to
matter because this list converts all email formatting to
default plain text.
You can't copy 'n paste ANYTHING from ANYWHERE (other than
a Notepad type
program) because everywhere else has formatting. Even in
plain text mode
emails, OE on XP is stupid and WILL show HTML formatting
even in plain text
posts WHILE you are composing! Don't ask me why.

> Word, WordPad, MSword, etc, all have certain kinds
"formatting" so you
cannot take something from them and paste it into a plain
text email in OE on
XP and expect it to look anything like the original after
it's posted. I've
also mentioned to you before to X out of the email so it
goes in your Drafts,
then just LOOK at it and then you'll see how it's going to
look. Then you can
open it from the Drafts and re-do the text in it. Or, toggle
between plain
text and rich text, then back to plain text again in the
email to remove all
formatting. Of course if your replying to all posts IN HTML
format, and
sending them **IN** HTML format, that's another
story....just don't do
that.Or, best yet, like I alluded to in my other email, just
"Reply" to the
post and let 'er rip! - -Clint
