I first select "Post A Reply" then minimize it. Find the link you want, right click, copy, go to bottom of screen and maximize, type response and paste your link where you want it by right click and choose paste. When you post it will take you back to carecure.

David , once you have highlighted what you want to copy use CTL+C , to cut use CTL+X [ instead of right clicking with mouse ] ...then to paste , where the cursor is on the page , use CTL+V ...i hope this is clear ...

When on-duty as SCI-Nurse, I do a lot of link insertion. What I do is open a second window to find the link(s) I am looking for. Once found, I copy using the method below.
I then open the reply option on the Care/Cure page. Often these links are long and unwieldy, so I use the HTML option. If you put all of this in order (no spaces or returns, all in a line) you get a nicer looking link that is clickable.

On the newer interface you can also use the URL feature at the top of the reply window.
For Quoting, you can either use the Quote feature on the reply page, or copy the text you want, then do this (again no spaces)
