underline certain characters/words within text display

[David McFarlane]

Yes, using multiple text boxes in a Slide is the regular way to get 
around this, although clumsy.  Ultimately, you could do everything 
using Canvas.Text, etc. (see the Canvas topic in the E-Prime Help 
facility), although this is not simple (e.g., you will have to do 
your own word-wrapping).
