Hi Pete,

Is there a way to overline text?
You can use Math (the equation editor) for this.

type 'bar {your text}' (without the quotes) and you get text,
that is overlined.

Hope, this helps you.
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

Sorry. My steps were:

1) open text file
2) insert > object > formula
3) click in lower window

Then I typed
        overline (test test test) ENTER, and got
________________
(test test test)

Then I tried

        overline TEST NUMBER 2 ENTER, and got
____
TEST NUMBER 2

So, still no joy.
