For bold print you would need to imbed the codes used by the printer. Assumining that you are using a laser printer you could try the codes used by the old HP printers. Most all laser printers still accept them.

For bold on: chr(27)+"s3B"
For bold off: chr(27)+"s-3B"

The upper lower case here is real important. Try changing the 3 to a 4 or higher if you want. It's the stroke weight.

Understand this is just a shot in the dark. I haven't played with this stuff in over eight years. Also remember that it will affect your alignment when printing as the extra characters will be included when VFP calulates the memo width.
