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. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Did you look at the referenced article? This is just what it says. -- Suzanne S.

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. -- Suzanne S.

With respect, Suzanne, my reply was to Frustrated Secretarys final
question How can I stop this, and how can I eliminate the lines it has already created???? I fixed it in one paragraph. The article that Greg referred to is very good (and far from inadequate) and I see why you are questioning my reply. However, in my defence, and speaking on behalf of frustrated secretaries everywhere, when you just need someone to tell you how to fix a problem, too much information can be well, too much. I hope I havent offended you in any way. The silly thing is that Frustrated Secretary is probably now happily typing away and totally oblivious to what she/he has started. "Suzanne S.
