Ordinarily you could do it using just Find/Replace using the same approach as before. In this case, it looks like you've already done that with the tab as the extra character to insert. Hence then tab is now part of the bolded range. So this time, along with setting the Find to look for a bold font, tell it to look for the tab as well, with:
^t
Then, for the Replace expression, use:
]^t
