How can I do a diagonal strikethrough
I need to add a diagonal line on some text. Drawing them is a nightmare as
they seem to be different lengths/sizes and it's so fiddly. What would be ideal is a diagonal strikethrough. Someone's advice would be very much welcome as I'm getting desperate! |

How can I do a diagonal strikethrough
Exactly what do you mean by adding "a diagonal line on some text"? Do you
want a diagonal line through each letter, each word, or through an entire paragraph of text? Drawing individual lines through each letter or word will be tough, but drawing a diagonal line through an entire paragraph is easy -- at least it is in Word 2003. All you need to do is create a table as wide as your column of text, set the cell margins at 0.0", place each paragraph that needs a diagonal line in a separate cell of the table, use Format - Borders and Shading to delete all the outside cell borders, and then select a diagonal line as a "border" for the cell. I'm not sure exactly what the commands would be in Word 2007, but I suspect the logic will be the same. "Sally Beauchamp" wrote: I need to add a diagonal line on some text.
