How do I get both bold and not bold text for RPE output in Excel?


Janet Charbonneau (852754) | asked Jul 20 '18, 5:34 p.m.
I have an RPE report where I want both bold and not bold text in one cell within my Excel output.  I have used the Bold properties within each text box.  When I look at the output in Word, it shows correctly as in this example:

Header1:  Header2:  Text Output

When I look at the output in Excel, it shows everything in Bold as in this example:

Header1:  Header2:  Text Output

Here is what my cell consists of:


It shows the bolded text boxes correctly in the template, but it does not output correctly in Excel. 

Does anybody know how to get this formatting to work correctly for Excel output?

You cannot have bold and normal text within same cell, which is a limitation with current Excel output.

Thank you for the information!  Do you know if there is any future plan to have this available in Excel output?
