    Not really all that technical - I'm sure it's easy when you know how.

    When you post a link on something (eg an email) rather than post the actual web adress, such as:

    http://207.228.230.231/info/NAD_T550.pdf

    How can you do it so that it doesn't read as the above, but rather(for example):

    Nad T550 Product Spec

    Any advice?

    Sorry, I'm lame with this kind of thing.

    I don't know like but is this where hyperlinking comes in?

    Use HTML code such as

    < A HREF="http://207.228.230.231/info/NAD_T550.pdf">Your text goes here< /A>

    Remove the space before the first A and the space before the /A

    I can't get this to work in an email

    Even with &quot;Rich Text (HTML)&quot; enabled in Outlook Express.
    The only way I can do it is compose a thread here, type in the HTML, use Preview instead of Submit, to create the hyperlink without littering the BBS, then copy and paste it into an email!
