Your code is evidently created via the macro recorder. If you had specified bold for the replacement font when doing that, you'd have the code for specifying a bold replacement font. Better still would be to specify the 'Strong' Style for replacement.

PS: When posting code, please use the code tags. They're on the 'Go Advanced' tab at the bottom of this screen.
