I searched the forum for information on how to use the multiquote function to no avail. After a few trial and errors, I figured it out. Just click the "Multiquote" button below the posts you want to include in a single post. A "+" will appear next to it. After selecting the last multiquote, click the "Quote" button in the same post. All the quotes you added (hence the + sign) will appear in the text input box where you can reply to each individually by selecting where you place your text. Hope this helps!

I already knew how to do this, but it'll surely be of help for those who don't know. +1

Hehe, nice. Indeed, there is the button and I never clicked it.:banghead:
I just did it manually, opening quote tags and copy+pasting from the different posts.

Should be much smoother now!

Hey elite, is that an Obsession in your avatar?
The other day I was at an amateur astronomers gathering, they meet every saturday, and
two guys had one of those, one with tracking and pre-programmed positions!
Very, very neat!!

Not an Obsession, it's a 14.5" (36.83cm) Starmaster with dual axis servos controlled by a Sky Commander digital setting circles giving it tracking and goto capabilities. The mirror is superb! It belongs to my astronomy club (check out my profile for more information). Members can check it out for a month at a time or keep it longer until somebody else wants it. I'll hate to give it up!

Might be a shorter version of what I do: I always use cut & paste:

quote one message
write a response
CTRL + A, CTRL + X
quote another message
write another response
CTRL + P, CTRL + A, CTRL + X
repeat as needed.

My bad. :p

Last time I tried that was on an older forum with (I guess) an older vBulletin version.
