In DBT 10.4 you can alternatively highlight the group of words, then apply
the bold, italic or underline style to that section.  And in 10.3 you can
precede it with [fts~i] and end it with [fte~i].  Those codes start and end
the itallic font, and they take into account the rules concerning using a
double underscore before the first word of four or more, vs. individual
underscores before 1 to 3 words.  

But if you know the rules, typing the underscores is the fastest way.
