Needed: The type underline you get with the accounting format (see below
for details) when you are using the percent format.

Problem Explained: The accounting format changes the way the underlines
work (all 4 types: single, single accounting, double, double accounting).
With the accounting format the underline will always be just a little bit
narrower than the with of the cell regardless of the contents of the cell
(unless it is empty). This works with both numbers and labels formatted
in the accounting format.

This is a very desirable attribute when your columns are all the same
width and your would like your underlines to all be the same width
regardless of the contents of the cell. Unfortunately, I can not figure
out how to write a custom format that will give me this type of underline
for cells formatted with the percent format.

Thanks, Will
