Underlining in forms
Is there any way to allow underlining in form fields? I
designed a document with forms and one of my coworkers would like to underline just two words in a long form field entry. Thanks, Leslie |

Underlining in forms
Sorry, no there is not.
What you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." Check this in help. For more about online forms, follow the links at http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms or http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm especially Dian Chapman's series of articles.

Underlining in forms
Hi Les,
Is there any way to allow underlining in form fields? I designed a document with forms and one of my coworkers would like to underline just two words in a long form field entry. It's not possible using Word's built-in functionality, but it can be done using a fairly simple macro... as long as the form field is NOT in a table cell?

Underlining in forms
I agree, not possible to underline select words in a form
field unless you design a macro to select and underline certain words after the form is completed.- but this will only work if the words you want to underline are going to be the same words all the time You can actually make the macro run after tabbing out of the last form field.
