It is late at night here, and I'm tired, but you should probably know this little thing.  If you are taking your own, sweet time with your replies to these data gathering threads, you will likely "time-out" on your posting session.  That means that when you hit the "Send Message", the little pink button on the bottom of your message reply window, you might very well have run out of the time that MSN gives you to reply.

 

So, it might be wise, or even advisable, to left-click your mouse, and backtrack/drag to highlight what you wish to post, then copy (little icon on the top row of this message box, looks like two little pages) so that if you have actually timed-out, you won't lose whatever wise and witty things you desire to share with us.  And, when/if you get that dreaded timed-out message, you will be able to pop up a new message reply window and simply paste (little icon on the top row, third from the left, looks like a clipboard with a teeny page) into that new message reply window; then you can send the message just like you intended to in the beginning.

 

I hope that you get the thrust of this missive, because you will be oh so sad when you have to try to replicate all the wonderful things that you tried to post.

 

Best of luck, and write back on this thread if you are still having problems, or e-mail me for help. 

 

I learned this the hard and painful way whilst trying to post seven or eight times this evening.  Yes, very sad.  Send me some cookies and a few pieces of dark chocolate, please.   Or cake.
