Default Underline 1 line of text in a record

Hi Don't think you can without specifying the data condidtionaly - ie If
Name is Wayne me.textboxname etc etc

But I am almost sure you can't select a specific line in a field and set the
format of that differently to the rest of the field's lines

The only way you can get specific formatting (bold, underlined, italic,
different color...) in a *portion* of a field is to use a Rich Text Format
control, and include the format characters in the text (which can interfere
with searching). A2007 handles rich text natively, prior versions need a third
party Rich Text Format control.
