Creating own Bold Style

I have created my own style called Bold, which does as it says, for our protected letter template. However, when you want to apply this style to selected words in amongst a sentance, it doesnt want to and will only bolden the whole sentance. Please could you help?

For upcoming training course dates see: Pricing & availability

RE: Creating own Bold Style

Hi Katie,

This can be annoying, I have come across it previously and it seems to be a 'sometimes happens' type of problem, to sort it; I have press the UNDO arrow on the Standard toolbar, once, which seems to clear the entire sentence from being bold and leaves the selected word bold. I know its annoying but I havent been able to sort it any other way. Let me know if it works... Pete

RE: Creating own Bold Style

Hi Pete

I have resolved this problem since I posted my query.

To resolve: When creating the style (Fromat, Styles and formatting, new style) there is an option called 'Style Type'. I previously had my own bold style set to 'paragraph', meaning that when I applied this style, it would only apply to paragraphs. There is another option under 'style type' called 'character', which applies the syle to as it says, character. This works
