I have just opened a Word doc. and tried to toggle by highlighting text and 
clicking the bold button. The button changes as if it were activating but 
nothing actually happens to the text. It is still in bold format. I have 
tried the same with Arial and others as my fonts and it works perfectly. As 
I said, the Times New Roman font in the drop down box is in bold, should it 
be? I can't remember. I thought this should be in regular and you made any 
changes required by toggling the bold button?

By the way Linda: How do I get rid of the text at the bottom of my mail for 
a reply. When I highlight it and press delete the whole mail is sent to sent 
items (where I am typing this) :-).

Regards, Alan.
