Not a problem, just wanted to say I just discovered the 'Save Messages to Text File' function in my overloaded mailbox. Very useful if you haven't checked it out and have stuff you want to keep...!

the only way I can think of would be the usual File...Save Page As..and save it to a suitable directory somewhere. But you'd have to individually save each page of a thread.....like you would with any web page...

Or, cut n paste the page to a Word document and delete the bits you don't want.

I assume you've got Word? :cool: speak to me if not ;)

or even easier and tidier, select and cut the text you want to save and paste it into a Notepad document and save it....as its got no formatting per se its really quick to access....

Well extreme convinced me to take the complete door rather than my idea of a bit of filler:augie
So the main thing is to ram an akro prop in the truck diagonally and crank it up a bit. That should be enough to straighten things out.
The rest of the bits will be more customising really.
Oh and a bit of roof rail to fix my broken casting.Another plastic int. panel, another bit of glass(without scratches)etc
So hammer and filler this w/e:cool:
