    I am wondering how to reply to a certain reply in a forum topic.

    I had noticed a message in a box and a reply to it below.

    you can use the quote/reply button which is at the bottom of the reply box. It allows you to, in a sense, copy a hubber's post, in part or in full.

    you can cut and delete certain sections of a reply as well, as long as you leave the beginning quote:username and ending quote:username sections in tact.

      I see! Thanks, janetta. When I reply, I usually delete the message. So, there's my mistake! Let me see if I have this done correctly now in this reply.
