Pressing Ctrl-U underlined the whole cell when I tried it. You can select
and underline each word in the cell individually but that would be very
labour intensive if you have a lot of cells.

I would like to apply underlining format to a cell where JUST the words are
underlined (the underlining does not extend accross the entire cell). It
seems that it always just underlined the word when I pressed Ctrl-U, but
lately Excel has been putting the underline accross the whole cell as if I
had added a border.
