    Thanks.

    This option gets me 40 messages on one page, but not "all the messages in this thread." Is there any way to do that?

    I've been asking this question for a while, on different forums. So far, no one, on any forum, has an answer.

    Just print each page, that's all you can do, I'm not sure what else you want.

    Even printing 40 messages will be a multi page print job, by printing each page of 40 you are just multiplying that.

    Our content is more to be read here, I can understand wanting a copy of some useful information but you are asking for a lot of information if you want an entire thread that could be several pages long.

    What exactly do you want to do?

    I travel a LOT as part of my job, so I'm offline when I'm on airplanes, etc. So I like to be able to read threads when I have time. Also I like to be able to create PDFs of threads and then highlight the most important parts. then I file threads away by topic.

    Sometimes I find a thread that is about something I'm planning to do in the future. So I would like to be able to capture the ideas when I can, for future reference.

    Believe me, I want to be respectful of the rules and usage of this board. I just started doing my Win 10 upgrades recently, and I've run into a bunch of problems. I think this will become my GO TO board for all Win 10 topics, and I want to maintain my welcome.

    Thanks,

    Yeah, unfortunately, all I can suggest is the same thing I already mentioned,

    It may be a hassle but we can't make it too easy because there is always people stealing content then posting it as theirs.

    We have to deal with that all the time.

    The print option is there so that is about as good as it gets.

    Derekimo,

    As you can see from my explanation, I am not interested in stealing content, but since you mentioned that problem, I can see that it's a big headache for you As an amateur photographer, I'm reluctant to post my photos on a website like Flickr, because lots of people think that "I found it on the 'net = Free for me to use."

    The 40 postings per print view is certainly a big improvement and I can live with that.

    I understood your point, I was just pointing out why it isn't easier to do what you wanted. I can understand your reasons with photos too.

    I'm glad you found something you can work with on the print option. :)

    I might be stupid(jury is still out to lunch on that)-
    But why not save page as HTML or a link pasted into notepad..?
    That would ultimately give you what you want as far as i can see..?
    Either that or Ive missed your point i am addt ddt esp and some other things- so im told.
    Edit----------------------------
    Sorry i had to add one more thing, a "life lesson".
    Stealing ideas, values and lessons is called "LEARNING", doing nothing with them is called"Dumb ass waist of space"
    Sharing them and modifying them is what others have won Nobel peace prizes for.
    That is why Teachers teach- so that others may "Steal" the idea and learn / develope it.
    "so ends Fronks speach"- damm im gooooood..
