So in the text file you could type something like "/i italicised word/i"
that would then format the words "italicised word" as italics in Open
Office.
Yes.
Use HTML codes and save the file with extension ".HTM" or extension
".HTML".
For example, a file named FORMAT_TEST.HTML containing the text "The
quick brown <i>fox<\i> jumps over the lazy <b>dog<\b>." when opened by
Writer will display without the tags, with the word "fox" in italics,
and the word "dog" in boldface.
This trick also works with MS Word.
Oops! My error. It should indeed by "/" not "\". I haven't programmed in
HTML for about 6 months.
