Creating own Bold Style

Hi Pete

I have resolved this problem since I posted my query.

To resolve: When creating the style (Fromat, Styles and formatting, new style) there is an option called 'Style Type'. I previously had my own bold style set to 'paragraph', meaning that when I applied this style, it would only apply to paragraphs. There is another option under 'style type' called 'character', which applies the syle to as it says, character. This works
