Word 2007 Autotext and formatted text

M

MrsMac

I type the underlined text, select the text, hit Alt-F3, it's saved in
Building Blocks, I name it and save it. When I go back to enter the text,
either in the same document or in a new document days later, the text is NOT
underlined. I have repeated the entry over and over. It never holds the
underline. Does 2007 not hold formatting in autotext?

Thanks for your help.

How did you apply the underline formatting? Direct formatting (for example,
applied by pressing Ctrl+U) should definitely be saved to the
AutoText/Building Block entry.

Sorry for the delay in responding. For some reason, I am not being notified
of replies.

I have used Ctrl+U both before and after typing the text. Neither holds.

This is strange. I don't have an explanation for it. :-(

Note that the notification in the Microsoft web interface is broken, and it
has been for quite some time now.
