[FX.php List] Creating formatting from FX

[Glenn Singleton]

Steve,

It depends on where you want the result shown...

This is the way I would do it

1. Define a field for the data you want in bold say resultBold_t

2. Defina a field for the rest of the data say result_t

3. Build a calculation in PHP or Filemaker that combines the two and  
shows resultBold_t & result_t in the font and style you require.

HTH
