What is "overline" that must be typed? What does it look like? Where on a US keyboard is it?

Given that the OP asked how to achieve overlining, saying "type overline" is sort of begging the question.

Thanks. Tell me where I went wrong:

1) open text file with writer
2) place cursor
3) in the lower window, type
bar test test test
4) hit Enter

I do not get test test test with a bar over it.

    The problem is step 3. What you type should be:
overline {test test test}
     This will give you approximately this:
____________
test test test
