I didn't want to take up space on the Lost and Misplaced thread, so I thought I would try to get the hang of imbedding links here.

Region tried to help, but I am one of those people who needs a step one, step two, step three guidance.

I tried the URL thing, but what I tried didn't work.

2. click the URL button

3. paste the URL in the prompt window, click OK

4. type in a Webpage Title (ie. My topic)

My topic

5. do a Preview to make sure you did it correctly

Ok, Region. I printed your instructions and I understand everything except #4.

for example, when you say Webpage Title, do you mean a title like:

WA2K radio in now on the air?

It worked, but I had to get rid of the word "Webpage" to make it look neater.

Think I have it now, and thanks once again, Region

good job Letty Smile

after clicking OK the first time, it will prompt you for a title to give to the link.

so you can either type it at that point, or clean it up the way you did.

i've done it both ways -- the key is Preview'ing it...

Well, I am okay to embed links, but I don't get the OK thing to click, therefore I can't type in a title...
