Would occasionally find this useful. Seems rather wasteful if in a thread I want to reply to 2 or 3 messages for me to wirte 2 or 3 reples just because I can't work out how to do this. I have seen it done by others so it must be possible. I qould not be doing this often, before anybody gets worried about exorbitant quotes in a post.

I'm sure the experts will tell you there is a much easier way, but what I do is use the "reply with qotes" for the main passage being quoted. For the others, you can type in the [quote="Peterbale"] etc yourself, and use copy and paste to transfer the text itself.
it must be possible.

If there is, I haven't found it.
Don't forget the closing quote tag as well [/quote]
