What a pain. Why ever did they change that? That's going backwards and making 
things MUCH more difficult.

Kathy,

Although there are no buttons in that window, you can use the standard Windows 
keyboard shortcuts

ctrl B  to bold
ctrl I   for italics
ctrl U  for underline
ctrl S  for superscript

You'll only see the coding in the Details window, but reports and web pages wil 
show the formatting



Sincerely,
Sherry

Legacy 7.5 allowed me to format the text in my source detail text field and 8.0

Is there a way to bold, underline, use italics, etc. in this version?  I miss 
it intensely!
For instance, I create a source for a birth record of an individual.  I will 
add that source to the child, each parent and if I'm very, very lucky, the 
child's grandparents.  The only change I would make to the source text in each 
case is I would BOLD or Underline the individual's name in the text to make it 
obvious why this source applies to that individual.
I know we have more options when it comes to multiple sourcing in 8.0 but I 
think I need to watch a video or maybe its in one of the books I have.  But for 
now, I'm really curious why this simple little word processing option has 
disappeared.
Thanks everyone!  You are all such a blessing to me with your vast knowledge 
and experience; I appreciate the time you take to answer all of the questions 
that pop up on the group.
