In Word 2000, it's "Format: Font New". I thought it might respond to a change
of
font at the start of the search string, but it doesn't.
In fact, it's important to note that the formatting applies to the whole search
string -- you can't search for "look at this" where "this" is bold and the rest
not. I
know; you can't do that anyway -- the point is that, when you're typing text in
the doc, actions such as Ctrl+B take effect (turn bold on or off) from the
point of
typing; they don't work that way in the Find window.
