Confused about the new format?
Please be patient with me. I am an old lady and it takes me a while to get up to speed.
A few issues.
When I answer a question I often leave then return with a reference. I can not find the edit button.
2 days ago a questioner on one of the sites I visit was extremely abusive and should have been kicked off of the site. I could not find a report feature.
The new system does a fairly good job of auto spell checking and correcting. There are still times when I need an old fashioned spell checker. Where and how?
Thank you for your patience.

To edit a question you've answered, go to Answers Home. This will be a summary of your activity and a chronological list. Find the question you want, click on the label(question). Find your answer -- edit is the little pencil by delete.
Report Abuse is the flag in the lower right corner of all questions and answers.
Spelling apparently is what it is.

I just answered you other iteration of this question and can't edit it or the formatting will disappear. This is explained in my answer. I just wanted to add that, when I asked a question similar to yours earlier this week, an Answerer told me to click on "International" over at the bottom of the list on the left side and to choose "Canada". That Yahoo! Ca hadn't changed over to the new format yet. I haven't tried it but I might mosey over to our neighbor to the north later today.
