Bolding text in Outlook 1

[Terkle]

Hi there
I'm putting some text into an email from an Access form and want to bold some of it but I can't find anything anywhere about how to do this. For example, if I have the Subject line with text to go into it that reads "File Request", is there any way I can enter code into the form so that this text appears bolded in the subject line in Outlook.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
Terk

I don't think you can natively embolden the subject text of an e-mail using Outlook.

For the message body, ensure it is set to HTML, and then add <b> and </b> around the text.

However, I don't think you can do this in a subject line, as they only accept plain text entries - I occasionally get emails with HTML code in the subject line that (at least in my version of outlook) appears visible.

It may also break anyone using webmail.
