Flags-Go to top of page and click on "User Cp" then click on "Edit Options"(this is on the left side of the window) and scroll down to the bottom field that says "Miscellaneous Options" and click on the arrow and select"Standard Editor-Extra Formatting Control" and click "Save". This should give you all the things Harry was referring to.

Am I missing some setting in TSG forums that is not allowing me to see these things?
Thank you for your patience. This is not critical, but if I can do it, I want to be able to.
Another brick wall to butt my head against.
Deke give you the answer above that should fix things for you.

YESSSS!!!!! Thank you Deke. I followed your directions and now I have the Icons on the top of the reply box.
I figured it was a setting somewhere, but didn't know where to look. Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I was busy installing SP2 on my machines.
No problems so far.
Thanks again Deke

Wimpy: I was just rereading the posts again and came across your inquiry about taking a screen shot. Sorry, but I don't know how to do that either.

Just click the "PrtSc" key at the top right of your keyboard by "Pause Break".

Then just open your image program(Paint, Irfanview or whatever it is) and click Edit then Paste. Then you can save it where ever you want. Be sure and save as a jpeg as they will post here are elsewhere due to their small size.

Again, thank you Deke. I tried your hint and it works. Who said you couldn't teach an old dog new tricks?
