The basic issue is that string variables are just that - strings; they cannot contain formatting information. And, even if they could, a message box cannot display such formatting. If you could explain what you're trying to achieve, we could perhaps suggest another way. I wouldn't be inclined to go down Larry's route, though, unless there's no better way, as that route adds what may be a lot of unnecessary overheads if all aspects of formatting are to be preserved.
