Linked Excel object - formatting prints incorrectly   
We have several word documents with embedded Excel linked objects.  When  
we print the Word document, the Excel objects' formatting doesn't print  
correctly.  For example, we lose some of our underlining, while other  
underlining is moved from double accounting to one large bolded  
underline.  Printing these sections directly from Excel, they print  
properly.  Does anyone know why this might happen?

Thanks,

-Zack-

Re: Linked Excel object - formatting prints incorrectly   
Press Alt+F9 to toggle the field codes and inside the closing } insert a \* 
charformat switch (replacing the \* mergeformat if it is then.  Then apply 
the desired formatting to the first letter of field code after the opening 
{  (I assume it is Link).  Then toggle off the display of the field codes 
and when you update the links the the information should appear with the 
formatting that had been applied as mentioned above.
