underline

There is a short cut to underline word by choosing pictuorial U. How about to
underline a word that the line is by dot ?

I wish the line same as the word length and not by drawing.

Thanks.

Have you tried highlighting the cell with the word you want underlined and then pressing control + u

Thanks for your reply,my purpose is let the line become dot. Example as below.

I understand that you wish to underline a word or phrase with dots rather
than with a solid line? Can't do that with Excel. To format the text in a
cell, choose Cells then choose Format and pick the type of underlining you do
want. The shortcut using the U (or [ctrl]+[u] from the keyboard) is the
single underline option there.
