Hello Marck, On 12 February 2008 at 00:24:44GMT + (which was 00:24 where I live) - you wrote and made these points on the subject of - Mod: HTML use (was: Password problem): mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Please do not send HTML messages to the list except for purposes of testing. While the merits of HTML are debatable, and have been discussed numerous times on the lists, the list rules prohibit HTML e-mail. You can easily automate this by using %SetEditor=1 in your list template. Understood. I think you should accept that as a very new to TB and still getting used to this program. That said, it is the first email client I have used that has HTML and I was unaware of the implications for this list and for that matter %SetEditor.May I suggest in the welcome letter this macro is mentioned. A major factor for me and I suspect others is I believe the very sparse user guide and help files provided which for such a sophisticated program are really very inadequate.

Hi Graham, On Monday, February 11, 2008 at 9:04:52 PM you wrote: You mean like this: http://www.pcwize.com/ ? G Great, but how is a newcomer to TB supposed to know about it? G This should as a minimum be in the Help menu.I shall read it with G much interest. I can empathize with your situation! Would it be helpful to have seen the link in the welcome message? The PCWise site is an external source not under Ritlabs control, and so maybe mentioning it in the help file could be the source of problems. But anyway, this discussion in itself is probably troutable since we're on Tbbeta where program testing goes on, and not Tbudl where learning curve problems are better submitted. -- Regards, Maggie The playful kitten with its pretty little tigerish gambole is infinitely more amusing than half the people one is obliged to live with in the world. -Lady Sydney Morgan Running Windows XP, 5, and emailing with The Bat! 4.0.14 Current beta is 4.0.14.0 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I do think there is a tendency for those of you who have long associations with TB not to realize just how difficult it is to make sense of all the features or find information. As an example, I am struggling right now. I forget to set the auto-wrap in MicroEd and then finding it will not wrap text already enetered either by selecting or pasting. Once it is set thereafter it is no problem and wraps the text. Simple for you guys, very frustrating for me.
