How do you edit comments?

How do you edit comments? asked Nicole-Baile in another thread. Well, I don't know a good way, but here is what I do;
I highlight my comment and select copy. Then I delete my original comment. After that, I select 'Add Comment' and paste my comment back. Now you can make changes to your comment before you sending it its merry way.
Please feel free to correct my method, as I am not a Windows user and I don't know what is on your screen. (I do not use an Apple either.)

Muchas Gracias!!!! I am using Windows, so I'll see if it works. But it does make sense. - Nicole-B, OCT 8, 2009

That's about the only option available, but it has one short coming. It has to be used immediately. If someone has posted a comment in answer to yours and you then delete to edit yours there is no way to get your comment positioned above the subsequent one again.

My operating system is a new version of OS/2. It is called eComStation or the short version eCS.

Never heard of it... I hoped to see "Linux" - someone to motivate me to go for this one... ;) - Behemoth, OCT 8, 2009

The cut-n-paste system. Just picking ;-) - webdunce, OCT 8, 2009

This is what I do also.

I haven't seen a way to edit comments.

It is right next to the "Flag" button.

We are talking about comments Eric, not posts. - --Mariana--, OCT 8, 2009
