While typing up some notes about a reinstall of Windows on a laptop PC I discovered that it is not possible to put a border round a small amount of text. I wanted to write up about use of the 'Fn' key, which on the keyboard has a box round the letters. This feature is also an easy and quick way of making boxes for printed questionnaires... This is possible in Word 97 -- just highlight the letters, and select Format->Borders and Shading. It isn't possible in Writer, and the .DOC saved in Word subsequently loaded in Writer loses this formatting. This would be a useful addition to Writer, and improve Word/Writer compatibility.
