Thanks Herbert,

The abovereferenced code did the trick. I changed it to \footnotesize and 
\rmfamily to conserve horizontal space, and am now very happy with the 
result. The underlining is perfect. Thanks.

As far as the sense in an environment -- that's how I do styles when I'm in 
Author Mode -- I format the paragraph with an environment.

Herbert -- could you please explain to me (and probably 100 others) why what 
you did above worked, when all else failed? What is the purpose of the lrbox? 
Why is the \underline placed in a different place than the \ttfamily? And 
perhaps most important, by what mental process do you come up with such 
solutions? Whatever you're doing, I want to be able to do it too.

Thanks
