Put whatever text you want and then use the insert hyperlink option with the corresponding letter page link. If you wish to comment on this issue, please [http://www.dc2universe.net/index.cgi?board=lettersandfeedbackdetcom&action=display&thread=2457&page=1]CLICK HERE to visit the letters page. The bold section would be the link and you would copy it and like it much like you would if you were going to insert a quote.
