For some reason, I had problems posting a reply on two occaissions this morning. Both times my reply/message was cut off and I had to delete it. And, actually, I've had the same problem on a number of occaissions in the past few weeks. Anyone know why this happens?
 
Are you trying to use the "<" symbol in any of the problem posts? There are some issues with that sometimes.

If you're trying to post a formula which uses that symbol, try putting the formula inside code tags. That seems to do the trick.

Hmmm...I did use the "<" symbol...it was within a formula, for example...

=(B1-A1+(B1<A1))*24

That's great! I'll try that the next time I run into the same problem.

Thanks Kristy!

Cheers!

P.S. Okay...that's definitely the problem. After previewing my message, I could see the same thing happening.

Using the code tag...

Code:
=(B1-A1+(B1<A1))*24

...no problem. :)

Thanks again!
