Bold the first character of everyline in report

Hey,
MS ACCESS 2003 on XP PRO.

My boss just came over with a weird request that apparently started in HR.

Can anyone think of how to BOLD the first character of a field for every
record in a report?

So if I have a field, CAll it WED, and a series of records look like this:

Trunk
Car
Van
SUV

I need to bold the T, the C, the V, and the S.

Any ideas? I told him I had no idea but that i'd research it.

Thanks.

The easiest solution might be to use two text boxes that are side-by-side:
Name: txtWed1
Control Source: =Left([Wed],1)
Text Align: Right
Font Weight: Bold

Name: txtWedRemaining
Control Source: =Mid([Wed],2)
Text Align: Left
Font Weight: Normal
