Just highlight and delete the words you want to remove mate. As long as the quote still starts and ends with [QUOTE you will be ok

On this occasion, to start with I hit the button to the right of the quote button (if you roll over it, it will say multi quote) which is then highlighted orange. I then went to Guy B's quote and hit the "quote" button.

That then brings both quotes (posts) up in the reply box.

If you then want to edit / remove some wording, just highlight and delete. Making sure you leave the [/QUOTE] at the beginning and end of each quote unbroken.

Hope that helps?

Nope, i think you got your reply right.

It was because Worzel had used the [ /quote ] in his reply - so it cut short your quote when quoting him!

Confused?!
