Is it possible to write a thread in microsoft word and download it to Scoobynet using Adobi active share or outlook express rather than having to use a web page? any of you computer wizards know?

Talking

For what reason would you possibly want to do that?

Dream Weaver, I asked the question because if I am responding to a thread my ISP disconnects me (time out?) and because of the problems they are experiencing (simply they are overloaded)it takes me ages to re-connect and I thought that if I typed my responses in "word" I could then download them without the delay in having to type them "on line".
Puff The Magic Wagon, No not me.. Iv`e seen him knocking abt and waved a few times in passing...often in Retford and Scoob`s are a rarity in this neck of the woods! Drive a MY02 (WR blue metallic)with a WRX plate.

Thumbs up

I typed my responses in "word" I could then download them without the delay in having to type them "on line".
Three possible solutions here:

1. Write 'em in notepad, and then cut 'n paste 'em into the reply box in one hit, as somebody suggested.

2. Learn to type faster.

3. Stick to writing short posts.

I don't have a great connection here so can't test, but would it be possible to have iExplorer syncronize Scoobynet? Then work offline and sync up all at once. Just might work.

There's abit bit of software called Webreaper - www.webreaper.com

It's written by a complete muppet that hasn't a clue about how to write code (he reckons himself to be a 'developer' but he really tastes food for BK, McD and KFC) - it's *very* buggy beware - careful how you use it as well because it could take down the whole of Scoobynet
