Guy, hit the "quote" button and when you see the text you want just select it by holding down the left mouse button at the start of your word and then drag it to the end of your word and let go. Then just click on the yellow H with your left mouse button again and hey presto!

As least I think that's what you're asking for  :-?

If you quote my post, drag the mouse over the area you want to highlight.  It will come up in blue.  Press the yellow 'highlight' tab in the menue above the quotebox, between the header and the text body.  selected text will display as yellow highlight...   :y
