Bolding Portion of Label or Text Box

In one of my reports I have a paragraphs which I can add.
It does not matter if they are label or text boxes (there
will be no source). Here is an example and what I need to
do is bold the part that is capital, but not the rest. I
do not want to split the text up as many of these
paragraphs will be more than one line. Is there a way to
turn a bold format on at the beginning of the string and
turn it off after the heading part of the string? Thanks
in advance. Bless you people who take the time to help!

Example:

PACE OF PLAY: Each competitor shall play without delay.

PACE OF PLAY: <~~~~ this part only would be bold
Each competitor shall play without delay.
 
As long as the "PLACE OF PLAY:" is in a separate textbox
you can simply turn bold on. If however this is included
(concatenated) in a single textbox with the other text,
there is no way in Access to bold it.
Simply said, in Access without external programs or add
ons, there is no way to apply more than one format to a
textbox.
Hope this cleared things up.
