Default Changing _format_ to underline

Ooh, you're right. But you could then search and replace italic with
underline, I suppose.

I repeat, AutoFormat (as opposed to AutoFormat As You Type) will do
this.
You have to explicitly run AutoFormat. You can do this with Format |
AutoFormat | AutoFormat Now, or you can add an AutoFormat button to the
Formatting toolbar if you need to use it frequently.


On my machine with Word 2003, _text_ (in the Autoformat as you type
options)
is used to indicate italic, not underlining. So, if I run Autoformat, it
will
italicized the text surrounded by _'s, not underline such text.

Am I missing somehting?
