I tried to correct the spelling of one of the other posters and had a funny, but a bit annoying experience. To point out where he went wrong I made the letters bold.

That was ok until I came to the word 'our'. To emphasize that the 'o' should have been a capital letter I made it bold.

I previewed in order to proof read and out came:

Oyour

As much as I appreciate the fact that chat room lingo is not allowed, it made my job just that tiny bit harder

Yes, something is wrong in the program. Sometimes, I even see this in the messages posted by beginners. I hope, Slava is reading this.
