Message copy
Phil Murray
>Am assuming there must be a way for me to print a message I find especially outstanding here. Last time I tried my 'puter was going to spit out 47 pages. Valuable part would have been the last two.
Am I overlooking an easy way to get just the message and not the entire list of messages?
Sorry if (slightly) off topic, but need info on paper, with all my senior moments.

You can cheat the computer...

>The only way that AOL will allow me to print out a single message is to Select the message, Right Click, Copy, and then Paste into an e-mail affressed to myself. Then I can Print that e-mail message before sending it. If I want to keep it in a file, I just Send, and that allows more o[ptions after receiving it.
Open the message in a "new window"

>Depends on your browser, but most browsers give you some option to open a link in a separate browser window.
In Internet Explorer, for example, you can right-click on a message in the index and choose "Open in New Window". Then in that new browser window you can choose File | Print to print just that message.

>Phil,
Another variation on the theme is to highlite what you want, right click and select copy then down in the lower left hit start, programs,accessories, wordpad then paste into wordpad and either print from there or save the document and print normally at your leisure.

>If I want to print out a portion of a message, I highlight the part I want, hit control p, and the print screen which comes up has an option for "selection". Click on selection and click print. Only what is highlighted will be printed. You can print the entire message or excise a portion as small as one letter using this method. It is handy for saving url's or email addresses.
Here's my 2 methods
Ron in Drums PA
>1) For the most part, I print the message into a PDF. Then in Acrobat I can delete the pages/sections/images I don't want.
2) I use Netscape as my browser. I can highlight the section of text I want by holding down the right mouse button, click on the printer icon, click on selection, click on print and I'm done.
At times I'll print to PDF using method 2.
Thanks! Tried a couple, worked.
