Hi paw broon. Thanks for your reply. I can now see that this has been done. However, it would appear that every time I edit my original comment (and I am not sure that I am done with it yet) the system posts the edit as a fresh comment upon the book in the Forum. That is a bit annoying.

That's downright strange. Never had that happen. I can only think of two possible explanations.
1/ You've been posting over the last week or so, when the site has just been updated and there are still glitches being found and worked out.

But I don't really think so.

I just tested out that function [re-editing a comment - I do it often - can never make up my mind!] and had no trouble with it.

So
2/ After you edit a comment, there are two choices, Submit or reset. Only hit submit.

I hope you work it out. Must be very frustrating.

Just occurred to me - If you want to edit a comment, go down to the comment itself - and on the yellow bar, there are two buttons, delete and edit.
Click that edit button and do it from there.   

Cheers!
