Default After using underscore, how do I eliminate automatic line at b

With respect, Suzanne, my reply was to Frustrated Secretarys final
question How can I stop this, and how can I eliminate the lines it has
already created???? I fixed it in one paragraph.

The article that Greg referred to is very good (and far from inadequate) and
I see why you are questioning my reply. However, in my defence, and speaking
on behalf of frustrated secretaries everywhere, when you just need someone to
tell you how to fix a problem, too much information can be well, too much.

I hope I havent offended you in any way. The silly thing is that
Frustrated Secretary is probably now happily typing away and totally
oblivious to what she/he has started.

What I am saying is that you posted a reply that unnecessarily provided (a
portion of) the answer already provided. By posting a reply to Greg's post
(rather than to the original question post), you suggest that Greg's post is
inadequate.

Suzanne, are you asking if I (jem01354) looked at the referenced article?

If
you are, actually, no I didn't (although I can see that it might look like

I
did.

To get rid of it click in your title then go to Format Borders and
Shading
in the preview window you should see a bottom border line; click on

it
(to
remove it), then click OK. To stop it happening again go to Tools
AutoCorrect Autoformat as you type and deselect Borders.

I am using Word 2000. I am creating a centered title, return, and
then use the underscore key to draw a line the full width of the
page. However, Word wants to change the underscore to a different
type of line which I cannot eliminate. I can use the return key

and
move it down the page, but I cannot eliminate it. When I reach

the
bottom of the page, if I use Ctrl-enter to make a page break, Word
again enters that stupid line. How can I stop this, and how can I
eliminate the lines it has already created????
