Oh my goodness! I just tried it and it *worked*! I used to try that in MS Word
and it would never work. 

This is amazing! What a quality of life improvement for me. Thank you!! You
have solved the problem. I think for anyone else with a similar desire, it
would just be to somehow make them aware of this fantastic workaround.

For now I will add it to my post in the user forums so if someone searches for
it, they'll see it. Thank you again!
