Looking at the "Experienced Forum Member" group settings:Can Post Topics Yes Can Reply to Topics Yes Can Edit Own Posts Yes Can Delete Own Posts No Can Delete Own Topics No
If you look at the bottom of your post there should be a list of options. Edit should be one of them.Last edited by kitvb1; July 3, 2017, 12:20 AM.Regards

For authoritative details, you'll want to message jamief. In general, to 'Edit', you should click the 'Edit' link if it appears at the bottom-right of the post. Various capabilities do need to be enabled, and that might be forgotten by the moderator.
I can't say how to delete because I've never tried. Also, I can't (quickly) locate any threads that I created that don't have replies; and I suspect that once replies exist, deletion might not work.Tom
There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation, naming things and off-by-one errors.
Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?

we are super nervous about allowing folks with hotmail email address to modify thingsAll my answers were extracted from the "Big Dummy's Guide to the As400"
and I take no responsibility for any of them.

Jamie,
I appreciate your caution, but for me writing anything besides code takes a lot of time and effort to make sure that what I am trying to convey is accurately represented in what I am typing. Usually, I leave out words and sometimes entire sections of my thoughts because in my mind I see what should be written and not necessarily what was been transcribed. It's isn't until sometimes much later I realize it.
My time is extremely valuable and I only share when I feel I can contribute something of merit.
