The OP hasn't claimed some sort of difficulty with the language (like an illness or English being a second language), he (assuming Joe is, in fact, a man) seems to have OK computing skills as he has discovered how to use bold and red lettering. He has also seen fit to make snide remarks about me in another thread. Merely because he got something (terribly) wrong and either doesn't like it being pointed out or his ego can't take criticism. I say again, that the only reason for my post was the fact that the post had been edited for grammatical errors, but still contained many. I then gave some pointers for making post more legible.

All your points are valid and I take them on board, but as I say again, if someone has a problem with grammar, spelling etc. why not send a PM and gently remind them? There may be an underlying issue.

It is the norm here in IIS to bring it to their attention very publicly and often start a new thread about Grammar, then another thread, then another.... It's a common theme.

Like most who post here, the is a lot of assumptions about individuals that you have never met (by 'you' I'm referring generally, not specifically yourself)

Enough said.
