Default Can I save it for later?

I really don't know where to ask this question but maybe someone can help. When I want to save the page I was writing and go back to finish it later, can I do that in these
forums? Thank you Doodle bug7

If you have the Word program you can type and save it there and then copy and paste the text into a post or new thread at NT once you're finished writing it.

I don't have the Word program on my computer so when I want to type something and save it for later I just put it in an email to myself, save the draft and then go back to it when I'm ready. If I want to copy and paste the text to a forum thread or anywhere else it's easy to retrieve.

There might be an easier way......this is just how I do it.

It won't save it online, you have to copy it and then paste it in Word or Wordpad or Notepad, or any other program that you have for writing documents.
Open one of those and paste the copied message and save it there until you are ready to finish it.

Another way that might be simpler is to make your partial post and add at the bottom that you will finish it later on. Then make the rest of the post as a new message in the same thread if it is beyond the editing time frame.
