How do I UN-underline hyperlinks in MS Publisher?

I don't like the spacing between links when I use the navigation bar for my
hyperlinks but when I choose "text only", the hyperlink automatically gets
underlined. I can't figure out how to take the underline off hyperlinks
unless I use the "buttons" in the navigation bar. Or, is there a way to
shrink the size of the large or small buttons the navigation bar creates? I
haven't figured that one out either. Thanks.

When I want to make hyperlinks without lines I just use plain text, then I
use the rectangle tool to draw a box over top of the word(s) you want as a
hyperlink. Right click on the box, make sure there is no fill and change the
line/border style to none. Right click on the box again and select hyperlink
and insert your hyperlink info.

Jayda,
Thanks but when I tried this in Publisher, it doesn't seem to recognize the
hyperlink when I preview my webpage. I tried putting the rectangle "on top"
of the text" and "behind" the text. Neither seemed to work. Do you know of
another way? Thanks!

From David Bartosik's FAQ page at:

Q. Can I remove the standard underline from my hyperlinked text on my web
page?
A. Publisher does not support that. However it only takes a small snippet
of CSS code to accomplish this on the web page. You can drop an HTML code
fragment anywhere on the page and in the fragment dialog paste the following
code:
<style>
a{text-decoration:none}
</style>
This is specific to the page so it effects all links on the page and it must
be inserted on each page in a site.

I struggled with this one and found the best way to do it was to create a hot
spot around the text and hyperlink the hot spot, the text stays as you typed
it.
If you want to hyperlink a picture do the same.
