OK, thanks Todd. I knew how from the green arrow ... just figured out same link can be used for any post on the last page by only changing the post ID, which can be quickly gotten from say 'Quote' or 'Report'. I'm repeating this for the benefit of others who may be interested (you knew that).Now all I have to glean is how to link-locate a post in multi-page threads. Just twigged to John's View Source code hint ... gotta play with it a bit more.... never too old to learn.Thanks again guys... [ More ]

Once you've established the code for the link you can find the message number in the View Source code on the particular page where the message is posted - only if you can wade through all the other code. As Todd said, it's not easy, but it can be done.gljohn

Yes, you can do it, but it's only easy in the case that there is a green arrow pointing to the thread. For example, on the home page on the right side, there are the last 15 posts. The small green arrows will take you to the last message posted for each thread listed. You can copy and paste that URL and it will allow you to link back to the post. But it's not easy to do unless you're linking to a post with a green arrow.
