Dean,
Thanks for this instruction! You know, I never knew that Word Find would
accept a formatting code as a target for a search, I guess because I know that
the codes are invisible on the screen (from previous sighted experience )and I
thought the Find function only would search for visible characters. Wow. I
know it sounds simple enough, but to me it's revelatory.
Thanks again.

the ideal thing here is if the attachment is a Word
document. Otherwise, you want to bring it into Word if
possible. Now use word find, Ctrl-f, and hit ctrl-b to search for
bold text. You probably don't want to type any text anto the Find
What dialog, since you're looking for bold text. Hit enter, then
escape, and you'll be on the first occurrence of bold text.
