Or you could just click the buttons up above the reply box. The bold "B," the italicized "I," and the underlined "U." You can either click one and then start typing (click it again to stop), or you can type everything regular and then swipe across what you want to change, then click the appropriate box. That way you don't have to remember all the symbols and whether or not there are spaces. Mucho easy. :)

I swiped across phrases in my paragraph to demonstrate you can do one at a time, or all three together, for more effect.

Cool! I was trying to figure out how to use those buttons as they only give one symbol when you click on it. :D You are soooo smart Lannie!! ;) :ROFL:

HA! Not smart, but brave! LOL!

I'll share a very funny, but true, story with you about this:

When Windows had only reached 3.0 in its evolution, I got a job offer at a place where I would have to USE Windows 3.0. The boss interviewing me asked if I was familiar with it. I answered YES. (Well, I had seen it on someone's computer before! LOL!) So I got the job. The very first thing I did on my first day of work was to start playing with everything to find out how it worked. Luckily, there was that wonderful "Undo" button in case I messed something up.

They never suspected I'd never used Windows before, and it was a couple of years later, when we were all sitting around talking about something or another, and I said, "Remember when you asked me if I was familiar with Windows?" The boss said, "Yeah, why?" So I told him! You should have seen his face! He said, "So, you didn't know ANYTHING about it??" I told him that I'd only seen it on a friend's computer, but that, no, I'd never actually used it myself. He just shook his head in wonder.

But this just goes to show you that the computers nowadays (after DOS, I mean) are pretty much self-explanatory. My thinking was that if I told it to do "something," and it wasn't what I meant to do, I could always "undo" it, and that's how I learned to use computers. Since 3.0 the operating systems haven't really changed much, just a few options and tweaks here and there, which are easy enough to figure out as they come along. I STILL sometimes find a new thing I never used before.

Anyway, don't be afraid to click a few buttons, just to see what will happen. You can always click "Back" if it's not what you wanted, or just start over. It won't kill your computer or anything. Trust me, I know this to be true! LOLOL!

That is how I've learned what I know too! :D Except for an e-mail or two from internet providers which explained a few things. Then hubby and kids taught me a few tricks. It certainly is a "process!"
