You can do this without wildcards. Just manually format one occurrence of
"status of Completed" as desired (that is, add bold to "Completed") and copy
it to the clipboard. Then, in the Find and Replace dialog box, enter status
of Completed in the "Find what" box, and in the "Replace with" box, type ^c.
Click Replace All.

I want to make every occurance of a word in BOLD type when it comes after
two
specific words.

I.e.:
"status of Completed" - "status of bCompleted/b"

(last word is in bold)
