I was reading a discussion string that I had posted to the day before, and noticed that my post was there - twice. I clicked on the Edit/Delete icon but it said that only administrators could do that. I thought we could all edit or delete our posts here. I was logged in. Did something change? If so, when I need something deleted or edited I have to request help?

Thanks for your help.

Lucy

Luce--Click on the paper and pencil icon on the top of YOUR post that you want deleted. Click on edit post. You can't delete someone else's post.

luce, sorry, i now have a keyboard that will type each letter!

YES, you can delete YOUR own posts and an entire thread YOU started.

click on PENCIL ICON to right of your nickname which opens both: SUBJECT LINE AND BODY TEXT.

now go to upper left side, and CLICK DELETE POST box, hit enter, and it's gone for good.

IGNORE ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS; you can delete yours anytime you want to!! they can as well. please keep these comments for another time. it happens to us all off and on! [Wink]
