How do you underline fonts in a Title?

In V4, is there a way to underline a character/word in titles? I've looked everywhere (I think) and couldn't find anything. I saw all the other standard editing tools (bold, italics, center, left just, right just, etc.), but nothing on underlining.

If this has been discussed before, then I apologize. I'm new to V4, so forgive my ignorance if it's there and I've overlooked it.

Thanks...

I checked too and I don't think it can be done, unless you use Photoshop or another app to make this text.

FWIW, usually don't want underlined text I'd imagine because of the std tv interlace flicker problems. You can fudge (or cludge ;p) it by going to a 2nd line, using the "____" key. Go to a smaller font size on the underline to pull it closer to the text, then adjust the leading to bring it up & fine tune.

Thanks for the responses. I thought I was missing something somewhere.

Also, I can understand on why you may not want to have underlined fonts/characters, but I guess I'm just used to being able to do it with other software.

Thanks again...
