There's no way to do this with styles other than to use a character style
for the label. If you used autonumbering from the Bullets and Numbering
dialog, you could format the number and its accompanying text as bold, and
you could apply this numbering to the Caption style, and you could still
cross-reference captions as "Numbered items," but you might lose some of the
other "magic" qualities of captions, which are ordinarily numbered with SEQ
fields.

How do I change the format of a Caption so it is always the same and I

don't
have to change it each time?

I want the captions to be; bold label, unbold caption

BoldFigure 1.2:End Bold This is the second figure

My problems are that it is all bold, and that it come in 10 font and left
justified.
I tried creating a style for it, so I can just select the text and change
it, but it make everything bold (or not bold).

Any ideas?
