Could someone please tell me what I’m doing wrong? If I draft a message in word and copy and paste it onto a thread, the format is all messed up and there are all kinds of messages like the ones currently on this post, that i would normally have manually deleted before posting.[/font]

Obviously I am doing something wrong. Could someone tell me what it is?

Cheers

Word has all sorts of formatting which is incompatible with the forum's software. Try using Notepad to draft your text (or copy from Word into a Notepad file), then cut and paste from Notepad into the Reply box. You might need to add paragraph breaks for readability.

Yes. What TheIt says. Pasting into Notepad strips text of all the hidden formatting.
