How to transform part of the text in bold?

Hello,
i have a Wrapped Text field where i would like to apply BOLD only in certain part of the text (i.e. <b>TEXT IN BOLD</b> text normal); unfortunately I cannot use HTML because in HTML field there is no way to wrap the text around images, and i need to do that.

I hoped to use VBScript to be able to transform text in bold, maybe using regexp, but i cannot find any example on how to do it.

Can anyone help me, please?

Greetings

  Hello Cris,
  
  Thank you for reaching us via our BarTender Community Forums.
  
  What font type are you using? Usually, one can select part of the wrapped text and click on the "Bold" option in the upper menu:
  
  
  
  Do you see this option greyed out? If so, perhaps the font type you are using doesn't carry bold types.
  
  Thank you.

  Xabier beat me to it!

  I was going to suggest also having a look at the EU FIC Allergen label template that can be found here (C:\Program Files\Seagull\BarTender 2022\Templates\Food) as that includes a routine to Bold certain items in a string that can include variable data coming from a database etc. 

  I think it is stored in the same location for 2019 etc as well but may just be in the sample documents folder for 2016 but I cant remember.
