    Arrow text properties

    I am trying to insert bold text to word 97 using a macro from excel:

    Wrd.ActiveDocument.Fields(10).Select
    With Wrd.Selection
    .Font.Bold = wdToggle
    .InsertAfter Text:="HOW TO CONTACT US"
    End With

    However, the text when inserted is not being bolded, any suggestions?

    Get the range start position before you add the text.
    Add the text.
    Get the range end position (which is the start of the new one)
    Set the range
    Bold it.


    Something like that. Try putting the text in first then bolding it.
