I have an app that sends email to clients. There is now a requiremnt
to have one line in bold, as some clients seem to have overlooked some
instruction. Right now the body is just a bunch of concatenated
strings.
How do I make one of these lines bold?

Put ***ASTERISKS*** around the important text.

Use the html format and wrap the lines with "strong" tags.

i.e.

Dim text As String = "<strong>This is bold text</strong>"

Thanks,

You'll need to send HTML e-mail.

<strong>MY BOLD TEXT HERE</strong>

If you're using System.Net.Mail, make sure you set the Message.IsHTMLBody
Flag to True.
 
Be aware that beside the rest of the answers, that this completely depend on
the receiving email program.
