How to quote in a reply?

I need to learn how to quote in a reply. I can’t find the help for the text box.
When I click on the double quote icon I get a blockquote…

Blockquote
If I paste into it it doesn’t format properly…

I have no idea how this is supposed to work.

There needs to be a help link somewhere…

Selecting the text to reply to in a quote when there is a reply button never occurred to me… maybe a quote symbol there?

There is a tutorial for this forum. Did you not get the linky when you joined?

I’ll see if I can find it…

Can’t remember - so long ago!
