Can it be done, and if so, how?

Thank you.

No, standard Access Label and Text Box Controls do not support formatting of
anything less than the entire Control.

You can use a Rich Text (ActiveX) control. I think you'll find a free one
at MVP Stephen Lebans' site, http://www.lebans.com. There are others, but I
don't know of another good, free one.

Alternatively, you can use multiple Label Controls instead of a single one.

Thank you.

Splitting up the label/s would be too much of a pain, not to mention a
positioning nightmare, so I'll try the ActiveX control. Or maybe I can put a
separate frame over the words that need to be bold.
