OK,Dave,I asume trhis is a mathmatical formula site.How do I get there?,or I have to type the complete address?Thanks

It might be a great help if you'd tell us the height of each of the 3 rings!

That being said, a 15 ft dia. bin will hold about 140 bushels per 1 foot of sidewall height PLUS the bushels in the "cone" of grain extending upwards towards the roof.

Don't you highlight, copy, & paste on something like that?

Assuming a pc computer, put the mouse cursor at the beginning of the link, hold down the normal button, drag across to the end of that line of text, let up the button. Text will be highlighted.

Put the mouse cursor in the middle of the highlighted text, click the _wrong_ button (the right one)and a menu will drop down. Click the 'copy' option and the highlighted text will be saved.

Now go up to the address bar of your web browser - again drag your mouse across all the text up in that line, let go, and hit the 'delete' key on your keyboard. This will make the highlighted text disappear, so that address bar will be blank.

Now click in that blank bar with the _wrong_ mouse button again, and you will get a menu again. Click 'paste' and it will copy the address into that line.

Hit return, and there you are.

Once you learn to do it, you can do about 20 of them in the time it took you to read this.

Who types addresses, copy & paste!

Another copy-paste method that works for me, just what I got used to doing.
1- place cursor at beginning of what you want to copy.
2- hold left mouse buttom & drag to end of text
that you want to copy. It will be highlighted.
3- hit ctrl & letter C keys at same time.
4- move cursor to address bar.
5- hit ctrl & letter V at same time. Highlighted
text will appear here.
6- hit Enter.
Done.
To "move" text to a different spot on the page is almost the same.
1- highlight as above.
2- hit ctrl & X at same time. it will disappear.
3- move cursor to where you want to insert
highlighted text.
4- hit ctrl & V at same time.
5- hit Enter.
Done.
Try both methods, use whichever is more comfortable for you. Mind crutch- ctrl & C as in Copy, ctrl & V as in moVe, ctrl & X as in Xing (crossing)out.

Wouldn't it be easier if the guy posting the link would just use the [u:2619df7f40]URL[/u:2619df7f40] button and drop the link between the ?? [b:2619df7f40]Or[/b:2619df7f40] put the link in the post, highlight it and hit the [u:2619df7f40]URL[/u:2619df7f40] button, and it'll make it a hyper link. Then, all you have to do is click it and you are magically taken to the site.

I usually don't fool around with copying and pasting links, highlight too much or too little nad you are stalled. Just seems like one guy going to an extra step is easier than 500 guys doing an extra couple of steps.

Just my opinion, I'm not trying to belittle anyone here....... just encouraging doing it right.

Sorry, I was at the end of my shift and only halfway with it. Copy and paste. All kinds of goodies.

Offered a guy some fish once. He said "yea if you clean them for me". Took them back and threw them in the river. Didn't belittle him, just encouraged him to be a little more appreciative of a helping hand.

Not long after marrying, my niece was presented a catch of fish by her great white hunter husband.

He proclaimed---"take care of of these fish" (uncleaned) and laid them in the sink.

She walked over to the sink, picked up the fish took them to the outside trash can and promptly took care of them. She then informed him she'd cook any fish or game he had ready but not for him to expect her to clean the game. If they hunted/fished together she'd clean her share.
