underline spaces
In Wordperfect you can put the underline on and press the space bar and it
will create a line. Can you do this in Word 2000? |

To have it show up, either remember to type a nonbreaking space (Ctrl+Shift+spacebar) at the end of the line, or go to Tools Options Compatibility and check the box for "Draw underline on trailing spaces". -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

underline spaces
Tools--Options--Compatibility tab. I have Word 2000 chosen as the
"recommended options". Then, scroll down the list below that about 1/3 the way, and choose "Draw Underline on Trailing Spaces". But I think us Word users really prefer to use tables for underlining areas into which we'll eventually type or hand-write. **************************** Hope it helps!
