Is it possible to format text within a formula? Let’s say I have a formula:

“24 Months” +chr(13)+chr(10)
@24months

And I want the text "24 Months" to be bold and underlined. Results would be:

24 Months

You could use:

"<b><u>24 Months</u></b><br>"+{@24months}

...assuming that {@24months} is a string. You would have to right click on the formula->format field->paragraph->text interpretation->HTML text. But wouldn't it be simpler to just use a text box for the text and format the text as you wish?
