Default Bold in text box

I have a text box in a report that is creating a
sentence. Some of the words are hard coded and some are a
reference to a field in my query. I need some of the
words to be bold - but not all of them. Here is a sample.

"You must notify " & [Name] & " within THIRTY (30) days of
the date of this notice."

I need the words THIRTY (30) days to be bold but the rest
of the sentence should be normal font. Is there a way to
do this without separate text boxes. I really don't want
to use separate text boxes because the length of the Name
field varies.

For years I said this was not possible. However, Steve Lebans has worked
out a way. Check out his site: http://www.lebans.com/Report.htm and look
for a sample called "Lady". Also look he
