Bold or apply color to parts of a string?

[Laurel]

Is it possible to apply attributes and bolding to parts of a string?

e.g. ls_address = BOLD(RED("BAD ADDRESS")) & vbcrlf & ls_firstline (I
know there aren't bold and red functions like this - just to try to give an
illustration).

I know I can apply them to controls on the form, and about conditional
formatting. I could try to re-do things to only use separate controls. But
I'd like to know what I can do with strings.

Thanks.

No, not within a string per se. You can use a RichText control to change the
display of a string, though.
