David,
>I'm very sorry that I couldn't notice it wouldn't work (how I forgot this as an "experienced" BUTM). Forgetting it led me to learn a nice way of referencing :)

If you're not inherently lazy like me, and you can open up the actual message that you'd like to point to for the user, you can embed a pointer for BUTM. It's more work than I care to do (so please people, don't give me a ration of bovine fecal material about it, because I'm not gonna do the extra legwork all the time. I often don't have a message number, or the time to go back and hunt up the exact one I'd want.)

Find the URL for the actual message to reference.

Embed the reference with the following wrapping HTML (please chop out the space immediately following each visible < or preceding each visible > in the block of text for the HTML)

< A HREF=URL including prefixing http:// >Some text descrbing the link to create< /A >

Thanks to David Frankenbach, who did the extra work to make the link for us last night, and reminded me about what's involved. DF - you da man!
