Q. How do I get Excel to add special accounting underlines to spreadsheet cells?
A. Excel can generate four different types of underline. To access them go to Format, Cells (or right-click, Format Cells ) and click on the Font tab. Below Underline left-click on the down arrow and the following menu appears:
You have five choices:
None removes any underlining from a cell.
Single adds a single underline the
entire cell width.
Double adds a double underline the
entire width.
Single Accounting does the same as the
single underline, except it is moved down just a bit.
Double Accounting is the same as the
double underline, except it, too, is moved down a bit.
