Sometimes you have to cut and paste, with an extra long
url link.
I always make sure that I send the entire link, but Yahoo
has a limit on the length of a url that it will display, and for
individual Emails, you may need to format your reader to
display wider messages.
When cutting and pasting on the web, you have to delete
the " \ " that Yahoo uses at the end of the clickable link.
Sufficiently confused ?

An alternative to posting those long links that don't work because they get
cut off- www.makeashorterlink.com.

This is so cool, Sylvia! I never came across this site before. Thanks.

(One downside is that if for some reason this site is discontinued,
the links will cease to work for someone reading through the vpFREE
archives. It might be worthwhile for Tom to use the "short link", but
still include the long link in plain text for future reference.)
