thanks for the help but I could not get it to work. I did as you say but when I copy, then go back and right click on the original message, paste is not an option. this sounds a bit complicated, all I want to do is post a quote in a reply. I thought the quote button is what you use.

Hit "reply" to my message.
Find the wording from the source (whatever it is) you want to quote.
Highlight it with your mouse. Right click on the highlighted version. Click on "copy".
Come back to this message that you are replying to. Right click in the message and click on "paste."
Once you have pasted the wording you wish to quote. Highlight the wording again in your reply to this message.
Once it is highlighted, click on the text bubble in the icons above (it is 3 to the right of the happy face, and it is next to the icon of the envelope with the "plus sign").
At that point, the wording you wish to quote should be between the quote code noted by a previous poster.
