Boing-
Very observant. You're correct. We have set the software so that, when replying, the entire thread does not load below the reply window. This speeds load time. If you need to reference something in the thread you can hit the "Back" button, read the thread, and hit the "Forward" button to be returned to your unfinished reply.

Like you, I prefer the entire thread be available in the reply screen. However, I'd like to get more member input on this before I make a final decision.

As concerns the multipage replies, I think its a waste of time. I thought I had eliminated that feature immediately after I had noticed threads coming out in multi pages. Please provide me an example so that I can correct this.
Thanks.
Rich
