What are you wanting to do with underlined character? Move focus to it?
Remove all of them?
Change underline and some text to
<span class="ul">My text</span>
If all you want to do is find the first underlined character, a macro does not
quite seem worth it to me.
I am going to do a couple tests though.
Best wishes,
Jonathan Cohn
