That's because you were hitting the [enter] key too late (in our cases). It's "staggered" to me too on some lines. --------------- How 'bout that !!! I have an Enter key on my keyboard. I'm trying your trick, [Enter] clicking "enter" when the line gets as long as the threads below, and seeing how [Enter] it looks. Let's keep in mind that I never have trouble with the current posting; [Enter] it's the thread that always looks skewed (scattered). I'm curious to see how [Enter] both this current posting and your responses below look in all window sizes [Enter] (maximized AND restored). Something tells me it's not the same as how a word [Enter] processor wraps its text in all window sizes. Again, thanks, Clint ... Harold. ----------------------
Each person's email program is going to be laid out differently, and some will see the [enter] key usage example as looking perfect, but some are not. The only way to be sure it will look perfect in all email programs is to hit the [enter] key about half way through a line as it appears while you're typing. -Clint God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Harold B" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Same posting without using Enter key: The current posting looks much better (in my OE 6 window). It's the thread that looks skewed which is my original point, how to keep the thread looking like a paragraph should look. I think Lynne is right, threads will not look proper until everyone is using the same configurations (sender, receiver, and ISP) ... Harold How 'bout that !!! I have an Enter key on my keyboard.
