ioneabee Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 what about converting it to a word doc and then pasting in here - haven't tried it - just a thought Quote
370Ad Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 (edited) Use the editing mode button and it works, first symbol that looks like a light switch Edited December 27, 2012 by 350Ad Quote
ChrisS Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 I think the ones Colin used to do for Wales were copied into a PDF and that was uploaded as an attachment. Again, I think ! Quote
Wasso Posted December 27, 2012 Author Posted December 27, 2012 The item has been copied to Word and then pasted to the forum which it didn't like. Chris, yes Colin would have used a picture, but I'd like to keep it simple. I'll have a go at the lightbulb thing and see what happens. Cheers all..... Quote
Wasso Posted December 27, 2012 Author Posted December 27, 2012 In clicking the light switch thing all it does is take you into an alternative editing mode. Still can't get this to work Quote

Wasso Posted December 27, 2012 Author Posted December 27, 2012 Can you try using variable length of text cos mine is still not working. Might just do a photo of it.... Quote
BulletMagnet Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 Press Print Screen, then paste it as new image in photoshop? Quote

Wasso Posted December 27, 2012 Author Posted December 27, 2012 Press Print Screen, then paste it as new image in photoshop? I'm at work so don't have the luxury of photoshop. I wanted to avoid pictures to be honest. Quote

spursmaddave Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 Ian it is something that the admins would have to add [table] [tr] [th] etc etc.... Not sure they would do it just for you, your not special enough Just use a screen shot but make sure the resolution is good otherwise they look a bit pants..... Quote
Wasso Posted December 27, 2012 Author Posted December 27, 2012 More than happy to entertain others with my noob forum excel crap. I've even tried using HTML saving of files and everything. Thanks Dave for your help on that one, so basically I can't insert a table. GRRRRRRRR!!!!! Sod it, there will just be half the info then Quote
spursmaddave Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 You can insert tables but only if the tags are enabled :wink: Quote

spursmaddave Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 Its the tags that need to be sorted for instance this works fine on other forums....
