Good morning everyone,
Just a general query - I tried to post a reply to a post but was told I do not have that access yet - I have my 'Activation Number' but it is not clear where one types it in. I have typed it in in the user name space and the password space and in various comibinations with the username and password, to no avail.
It appears I may be allowed to post this query (as I am being allowed to write it) but not answer a query.
I am sure that I am making some simple mistake and would welcome any advice.

Bill,

The activiation code is only used to verify your email address. When you received it, you should have clicked on the activation link in the activation email. You do not need it to log on. You log on using your email address and the password you created when you originally registered.

As far as I can see, your membership has been validated and you should be able to reply to other threads. I have tested this by logging on as you and posting a reply to this messge (which I have subsequently deleted). Please confirm that you are able to reply by posting a message here

Good morning Bob,
I got your post and seem able to reply - so hopefully it seems OK altho when I log on I am told I only have guest privileges whatever that means.

If you don't mind I will get back to you if I have any more problems

Thanks for your help and best regards - Bill
