    Hi Kay,

    The edit button on this forum stopped working or went away from the beginning. However there was a time frame in which you could edit. I'm going to post this and see if I can edit it.

    George Wright P.S. This is an edit. So I guess it is still working. GW PPS this is actually my third edit. What I meant to say in the first sentence is that it goes away after a period of time. I don't know how long that is. GW

      many forums only allow editing for a set time frame, usually something like an hour interval if not indefinitely. Its generally meant to keep members from going back at a later date and changing posts.

    Editing privileges are only given to a select few. I guess you just didn't make that list. So sorry.

            Waaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

            I tried to edit two posts right after I posted them (for typos) - couldn't do it.
            I'm going to go off and pout now.

                I'm a terrible speller, and I'm always able to go back and edit my posts.

                Now I don't wait days to do this, I'll edited within the course of about 30 minutes or less.
