Sorry I meant a textbox from the drawing toolbar in xl97-2003, or in 2007
Insert, Shapes, Basic shapes (top left in that section).

Look at textframe characters. From memory there's a relatively small maximum
number of characters you can format with mixed font formats, 255 or 1024 I
think. If writing text over 255 will need to add that in chunks of less than
255.

Trust you got your ole Word object to email
