Adrian,

On my system (Win XP Pro/SP2) the spaces between the words are *removed* from the overlined text.

So, if I follow your example exactly, I get overlined "Thissentenceisoverlined."

I also sent a message saying that curly braces allow multiple words. Seems I have to retract ... I was premature - it looks as if the spaces remain (while the text still has a grey box around it). But as soon as you click somewhere else in the document they go away

Even non-breaking spaces (Ctrl/Space) don't work.

Regards, Harold

Hi again Harold

Unfortunately only a single word can be overlined in this way. Nothing after the first space in what you type gets overlined.

Try this.

In a word document, type the following sentence exactly as it appears.

overline {This sentence is overlined.}

Select the whole sentence. Select Insert / Object / Formula from the menu.

You should have the sentence between the curly braces overlined.

Hope this helps.

Adrian
