make sure your drawing tools are showing if not: go to View Toolbars
Drawing and the drawing tools will open choose the line that does not have
arrows on it. Drag a line under the word you want to underline. Next, with
the line you just created still selected, right click : format auto shape
select the dashed line. hit OK

Hi Jackie,

You best bet may be to insert a line, change the
formatting of the line to dotted and then place it
directly under the text.

The only way that I know how to do what you want to do, is to draw a line using
the line drawing tool to the length you need, Select your line, then from the
Format (or right Click) menu select Autoshape, and change it's parameters to
dotted and adjust the thickness to what ever you need. If you use this a lot, I
would copy it to the clip board and paste it whenever needed. You can also
change the colour which will produce a different effect to get attention to a
point.
