Thanks for your response.

I have progressed well beyond the situation described in my earlier

That was my intuitive feeling, which has been reinforced by an article I 
stumbled upon in Linux Journal (18 Oct 2008). Having read it, I have now 
got a proper sheet of business cards (aka labels), with only one 
surviving problem: 

The card contains an email address and a URL, both of which OOo decides to 
regard as links to mailer and browser respectively, and therefore 
underlines. I want to remove these underlines; clicking on the "U" 
(underline) button doesn't do anything. What do I have to do to remove 
the underline?
