I 've got this movie script that I need to bold the names. The names are
always placed before a " : ". How do I find a way to bold all the names? I
have been trying to use VBA to find a solution but not sccussful. Your imput
is greatly thanked.

You could always do a global replace. CTRL+ F and type the name in Fine
What. Click on Replace and CTRL + B (for bold) and type the name in again.
Then click on Replace All. I hope this has been helpful to you.

Use a wildcard replace

Thanks a lot for your help. The problem is that there are so many names in
this movie script and i would have to go through each name that appearrs in
the script. I was kind of looking for a solution that i could just get the
work done all at once. But thanks again for your imput.
