[AccessD] Underline word in paragraph

I use VB6 most of the time.  As long as you know the position on the page 
and it doesn't change you can print an append to the line output with an 
underline line.  Usually requires some experimentation to get the length 
correct.

Using the printer object - not available with .net.

printer.print "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
Printer.Print Tab(22); "
