What we do at the college for fill in the blank tests is to delete the underscore and replace it with four dashes. Joe went to the ---- to fish.

For example you may have a line which says, APPLICANT NAME_____ (5 UNDERSCORE CHARACTER PROCEED WITH NO SPACE AFTER THE WORD NAME.) Frequently these number of underscore character is not the same, but is simply an amount that looks good on the screen or finished print. I have not found any direction within WORD for doing this and would appreciate ideas. I typically would put 3 (dots 36 character) but also am not sure what is suggested at the time of this writing. I will however go look for this rule. Thank you!
