Using O.E. 6

My ramblings at any time within certain newsgroups tend to be a couple
of paragraphs long.

The sentences within these paragraphs sometimes are broken up with only
a single word in the next sentences below, then the following sentence
will appear as just below the single clipped off word from the previous
sentence.

Heck, I hope this makes some sense to someone who knows his/her way
around the posting of newsgroup messages from within O.E. 6.

Thanks

Sounds to me that you are using a different monitor resolution then is
suggested. Check your monitor's instruction booklet to be sure.

A workaround is to open a message window instead of using the Preview pane,
or pull the Preview pane to make it wider.

Don't touch the Enter key except between paragraphs. What you see is not
what you send because OE does not apply its formatting until you click Send.

Frank,

Are you saying that I should type on and on until the paragraph is completed
then hit the enter key?

Thanks for you input,
drybones
