Is it possible to create a draft and then post it later to an existing thread?

Bob- I don't think so.
I know if you are starting a thread you can save it to post later.

I’m afraid that you are correct; but I was hoping that the forum gurus had a way.
You could always create a draft outside the forum and copy paste.....
I think you can copy/paste the whole draft to any message. You would have to repost any graphics. However, as Bob says, just create it in an editor of some type off-line.
I’m sorry I can’t help you guys on this. I have never used the draft feature.
I just played around with it. Once you save it as a draft you can reopen it up and edit the text or change it to a different forum. You can either re-save as a draft or publish it. Until you hit publish you can kinda do whatever you want with it. If it is a long text and one that I may use over, I type it into a MS Word or wordpad document until I want to use it again. That way I can check spelling and I don't have to retype the same answer over serveral times. Hope that helps. PS: It will be saved under your profile and "pending posts" when you save it as a draft.

Thanks I’ll try it.
