Hi!
Can anyone show me where to do this:
§ Any punctuation that follows an italicized word should also be italicized:
Aeneid, 250
Thanks!

I accidentally replied to Siusan offlist. As far as I know, this has to be fixed in Word, not SKY, but the fix is a simple Find & Replace. Here are the instructions:
+++++++++
Bring up the Find box. Click in it, then do control I so that the words Format: Italic show up below it. Don't put anything in the box itself.
In the Replace box, put ^&<\ITAL> (you can use any code you want in the angle brackets; this is my standard code for "end italics," so it's what I automatically type). This tells word to put the code <\ITAL> after any italic text.
Now go back to the Find box and click in it, then hit control I two more times until the Format: setting below the box disappears. In the Find box, now put <\ITAL>, (that's the <\ITAL> code followed by a comma), and in the Replace box put ^& and do control I until Format: Italic shows up below it (which should be only once). This tells Word to find <\ITAL> followed by a comma and change them both to italic.
Now go back to the Find box and enter <\ITAL> and then go to the Replace box. Make sure that it's empty. Take out the Format: setting below it by hitting control I twice, and hit Replace All to replace <\ITAL> with nothing. All the <\ITAL> codes will disappear, but the italic commas will still be there.
+++++++++
This approach can easily be tweaked if you need to change the punctuation after bold locators to bold. I asked Kamm about this a long time ago, as I’ve had several clients who wanted this style. He said he’d consider adding it as a SKY option, but maybe he forgot about it.

Yes! It's a "fix it yourself". Kamm sent me instructions but it's turns out it wasn't quite what I needed.
Thank you so much for this information!
