'----- Too bad you got told off but one of the wonderful things about TB! is you can customize your replies to different people or groups via QTs, templates & macros. TB! can automatically use a variety of prefixes to the '>' (or even replace the '>' with another character if you want to) via the use of %Quotestyle. To make matters really simple, if you *don't* use %QUOTESTYLE in your template the default is '>'. Take a look @ Help -> Index -> type 'quote style' & you will see the possibilities. In addition, I believe you can add something like %QUOTESTYLE="xyz" %QUOTES in your template & your quoted info will look like this: xyz> text xyz> text To complete the description, when you create a template, or change the default templates, simply add the following line & TB! will do the rest: %QUOTESTYLE='your choice' %QUOTES or do not add %QUOTESTYLE and you should get > xyz > xyz HTH -- Jan Rifkinson Ridgefield, CT USA TB!
