How do I draw a line with the shift and underline keys?

[revrn]

Using Microsoft Office Word 2003 with Windows XP.
Before I could draw a line across a page by holding down the shift key and
underline key for a short time, then hitting the enter key. I would like to
know why this no longer works.

You have to have "Borders" checked on the AutoFormat As You Type tab of
Tools | AutoCorrect Options. FWIW, you can accomplish the same thing by
clicking the Bottom Border button on the Borders palette on the Formatting
toolbar.
