Default How do I get selected text within a cell to remain bold in excel?


I have never seen this before, however, Hans seems to have hit the nail
on the head.

I formatted column "E" to "Accounting" and column "F" to general
I entered some dollar amounts and text data into Column "E", I then
tried to bold the some of the values (and a word in the text), and
Excel rejected the change.

Then I copied copied column "E" to column "F" and retried the
experiment with the same results (Excel rejected the changes)
Next I changed the format to "General" and the values/text I had
changed to bold (that did not change with "Accounting") and changed to
bold!
