Turn off underline when entering in datasheet mode

How do I turn off the underline which appears in a field
when I start to enter when I am in data sheet mode? I
believe it is a key combination but don't know what it is.

Thanks
 
It sounds like the InputMask.

Check the InputMask Property of the Control (on the Form)
or the Field in the design view of the Table (for
DatasheetView of the Table).

Hi Van,

I guess I was not real clear in my question (as usual).
This is pervasive and includes all fields not just one.
This was true at some time in the distant past and I learned
how to stop it but as it is only done once, I forgot. It
also happens in forms I have created (and used prior to the
setting change without the underline appearing). The
underline disappears as I enter information and is not
present prior to "got focus" and does not fill the field in
the db.

Thanks in advance if you have another solution.
