Yes, go to top of thread and you should see a search thread tab, click on advanced search and enter username and it should come up with all posts by that user.

thanks, I'll try it.

Is there a way I can search a thread to find all my posts

Left click on your user name in any thread and select "View Forum Posts".

Hi Joe,

That lists all posts from all threads,

I was after a list of all the posts from a single thread.

Hi Joe,

I was after a list of all the posts from a single thread.

Apologies, I misunderstood.

Click on the number of replies in the thread (located right above the thread views) and a box will pop up listing who has posted in the thread and how many posts they have made. Then simply click on the number of posts next to your user name and you will see a list of all your posts in that thread.

Hope that helps.

To embed a video, simply click on the "Insert Video" icon, which is the fifth icon from the right, just above the text editing area (see attachment), and copy and paste the URL of the video into the box that pops up.

Hi Joe.

A friend of mine whom uses prepaid mobile internet wants to register but only has a gmail account.

Are you able to point me to a thread/instructions detailing the steps he may follow in order to register and avail himself of this wonderful community.

Thanks in advance.

P.S. I did notice that a similar question was raised on the ABC thread and I tried to trace the answer rather than asking for its regurgitation , but sadly my tech skills failed me on this occasion.

Please tell your friend to contact me via the "Contact Us" link the bottom of the page and I will get them registered.

Can someone tell me if there is an easy way to post a spread sheet/table to a thread, please?

Can someone tell me if there is an easy way to post a spread sheet/table to a thread, please?

Nulla, if you would like to create a table in a post the new post editor offers this function. Just click on the "Table" icon, which is the one on the far left of the bottom row. You will then be prompted to enter the table properties.

Let me know if you need any further help.

Thanks Joe that was quick, I'll print off a spread sheet then have a go at the table set up.

Hi Joe

I need you to delete my last post on the IOF thread which is the incomplete table. By the time I worked out how to do it (inputting data then saving/editing until I worked it out) the thread timed out before I corrected the last save and finished inputting the data.

I should be able to re-enter the data in one go now.

Also, is there any way of transferring data in from a spread sheet?

Deleted.

Not that I'm aware of. Maybe give cutting and pasting it in a try and see if that works.

I opened another thread, looked at the table structure and will try setting it up in word, then cutting and pasting. Should be able to quickly edit any errors then if I get it wrong.

Thanks Joe

Hi Nulla,

As far as I'm aware this is not possible.

You can either attach the PDF document to your post or use the "Table" feature in the text editor and enter the data yourself manually.

Joe, how do I remove my old charts from the 'manage attachments' page please?

Hi GB,

Sorry for the delay in replying.

If you have attached the charts to posts they are unable to be deleted. The only attachments that can be removed from the Attachment Manager are ones that have not been used, and I believe these are removed automatically if they are no utilised fairly soon after being uploaded.

Thanks mate. It's just that I have to wait for old thumbnails to load each time I want add a new chart. Bit slow on the laptop.
