Red dotted Line under address line how to get rid
I am using Microsoft Word 2003, and am having difficulty in removing a red
dotted line that comes up in my address logo, a red dotted line underscores my street name, and date. I can't find how to remove it, or in fact where else to look as I have used the Help feature without success. I would like to remove it so that it does not show up on my emails. If anyone can help advise me I'd be greatful. |

The action required depends on whether you want to treat the symptom or the
cause: 1. Symptom: On the View tab of Tools | Options, clear the check box for "Smart tags." 2. Cause: On the Smart Tags tab of Tools | AutoCorrect Options, click "Remove Smart Tags" and answer yes. -- Suzanne S.

Dannie,
You are seeing a purple fine dotted line that represents a "Smart Tag." To control the display on "your" computer then toggle off "Smarttags" in ToolsOptionsViewShow. To control how your computer marks SmartTags, see the "Smart Tags" tab in ToolsAutoCorrect Options. -- Greg Maxey/Word MVP See: http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/word_tips.htm For some helpful tips using Word.

When you hover the mouse cursor over the underlined text, you'll see an i-in-circle icon, and clicking that will give you a menu of actions you can select. In the case of an address, for example, you could insert a map. To turn them off, go to Tools AutoCorrect Options and click the Smart Tags tab, then clear the checkbox for "Label text with smart tags". Alternatively, you could just suppress their underlines: Go to Tools Options, on the View tab, and clear the box for "Smart tags" in the Show section. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |

You'll have to ask in an Outlook NG for that.
