OK Paul but may I suggest you use more easily seen colours like these. MAROON, GREEN, BLUE, TEAL, RED, FUSCIA. Grey is a very bad choice and so are these. YELLOW, CYAN, LIME. It would also help if the un-needed parts of the e-mail were deleted as I have done to this one!

The comment (grey signifies a quote) re:Reply to Paul is there because this helps me to identify the thread in question while I'm writing in my usual editor and I sometimes forget to remove it. Philip M doesn't like grey 'cos it's hard for him to read so I make it as dark as I can but still show differentiation. If we were all totally disciplined, we'd have macros assigned to function keys for all our members so as to save all that tedious [PM] said ... and [PD] replied ... and [NJ] dissented ... and [JL] asked for clarification... but I guess we are not all that disciplined. Happy for now? Paul D
