replace underline with italics
I have underlined words I want to make italic. Using "find/replace", using
the "format", I selected "underline" for the find & tried to first change to italic, then tried to simply delete underline. Could not get rid of underline either way. Is it doable? Thanks. |

replace underline with italics
In the "Find what" box (empty), press Ctrl+U, to display Format: Underline.
In the "Replace with" box (also empty), press Ctrl+U *twice*, to display Format: No underline, then press Ctrl+I to add Italic. Note, however, that this will not italicize the punctuation following italicized words, which often (always for commas and periods) should also be italicized. -- Suzanne S.
