Default underline button

Barb, anyone else is going to tell you exactly the same thing that Rob did.

Just a little hint, though: highlight the text you want the underline to
apply to, then push the button or use ctrl+U. I find it a LOT easier to
remove all those silly buttons and just use the keyboard shortcuts, however.
Trust me. It makes things faster and organizes everything better.

[Ctrl]+U does the trick but I still can't use the underline button to do the
same thing. It does however remove the underline. Anyone else?

Thanks again,
Barb

No, I haven't.....
but my general advice is to free up some
valuable toolbar real estate by
using [Ctrl]+U to toggle underlining on/off.

Also, a couple other shortcuts:
BOLD........[Ctrl]+B
ITALICS....[Ctrl]+I

Does that help?

The underline toolbar button is not functioning properly. When I click on
the button it underlines the entire cell not the data in the cell. I have
tried to reset the toolbar and button to the default but it still continues
to underline the entire cell.

Has anyone experienced this before?

Thanks,
Barb
