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

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????

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.

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.

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.
