Hi, can anyone advice how to change the format of a specific bit of
text in a cell, I can set a whole cell to bold like
Dim r As Word.Range
cell = row.Cells(1)
cell.Range.Text = "This is some text"
r = cell.Range
r.Font.Bold = True
but when i try and use
r.SetRange(cell.Range.Start, 4)
to change the word this to bold I dont actually get the right text
In anticipation thanks, for your help

r.Words(1).Font....

Salut!
