"Cell" is an Excel term. There are no "cells" in Access reports.
What do you want to bold? What is the criteria? What does your report look
like?
Most likely, you will use "conditional formatting" in your report to bold a
particular control based on the value in that control.
Post more details if you need further help.

Hi Trey - the very simple answer is to highlight the field on your report
layout and then go to the Format Menu then Conditional Formatting. This does
not work on all fields and depends on what you are basing the 'bold' on, but
start with that and send more info if you still can't work it out.

In the database I have enrty in a field that I need to bold. There are a lot
of them and ther really isn't anything that I can write a cond format. I
was hoping to just bold the lines that I need to bold. Cell was I field
entry inside of the data sheet and the report is where I need the Bold to
show up.

Then I guess you'd need to add a checkbox to your table called "FormatBold"
or similar. Then check it for the records you want bold. You can then use
conditional formatting to check that field.

value for the check box. what am I missing or can I not use these two
together?
