Default is there a formula/macro/script that recognizes formatting?

Dear listers:

I have been given an excel spreadsheet that contains a person's
selections from a menu of options.

However rather than just having the choice listed next to the person's
name, I have the entire menu listed next to each person and that
person's choice is in bold.

Is there a formula of the following type:
give me a 1 if specified text is bold and a 0 otherwise?

Here is an example. The following information is in one cell:
"o Aceptó
o No Aceptó
o No Asistió
o No es elegible"

A person's choice is in bold. I need to analyse the data and want a
formula/macro/script that gives me a new cell with a value of 1 if
answer=bold and 0 if not.

Immensely grateful for any tips/solutions.

Not a very skilled excel user
