Can't underline in microsoft word
For a few weeks now, I've been unaible to underline words in Word.
When I try ctrl+u, it doesn't underline. When I use the underline button, it does underline, but as soon as I close the document, it disappear. It used to be only a few documents, it's now all the documents. It's actually weird, for example, if i write the word «mariage», the bottom part of the g won't appear unless I press ctrl+u. So the only thing ctrl+u changes, is that it makes those bottom parts of some letters appear (I don't get why the don't appear in the first place..), but it won't underline the word. Help, anyone ?? Thanks Catherine |

This could be a damaged document. However, first thing I'd check is the line
spacing for text (Paragraph dialog box). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP wrote in message ... For a few weeks now, I've been unaible to underline words in Word.

That is, your Line Spacing may be set to Exactly some value that's too
small for the size of type you're using. Change it to Single, and if the lines in the paragraph suddenly spring apart and you can see everything (including all the underlines you already put in!), then that was the problem -- so either leave it as Single, or if that gives you too much leading, use an Exactly value that's larger than what was there before.

Was have the same issue...I figured it out. The problem is you have NONE selection on your underline button. Fix: Push the small drop down arrow on the right hand side of the underline button...and pick a line type other than "none". Should work.

At first try other document and try with shortcut Control+U. If the problem remains then try to reinstall office pack or install different office pack. But I think it a document related prob. And it will be okay with other document. May be the file is corrupt.

Perfect Kim! Thanks Thanks Kim. For me the problem was the colour of the underline was white. I changed that to "automatic" or black, and it worked. You can get that option by clicking on the arrow at the bottom right corner of "Font" tab. |
