If you are storing the value in a String variable (as your initial posting
showed), then no. Text has no attributes (such as Bold or Size), it only has
characters 'strung' one after the other. Things that display text *may* be
able to bold it, but it depends on what that display mechanism is (TextBox,
Excel cells, etc); also some file formats (Word, Rich Text Format, etc.)
allow text attributes to be stored along with the text, but those are files
that require specialized display mechanisms to read and show them.

I want to make this the Alpha Month instead of Numeric. For example

CStr(Month(Now)

This will give a result of the number 3

This is being used in the following way:

strbody = "text " & CStr(Month(Now) & " text"

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!!!
