Hi All - I've encountered a scenario where I need to keep a certain word bold in an entire paragraph while sending an automated email using SAS.
Here is an example.
Hi all this your new colleague John Doe and he has 8 years of experience as Financial Analyst. You can fin his contact details in our intranet.....
Some one posted a scenario related to converting texting bold in an email and one of you guys posted the following link for reference. I looked at it and I do not think it is going to work for my scenario as the solution mentioned in the PDF is to use html tags and convert entire line in bold/colored not a single word.
I also have another question. Is it possible to keep a hyper link under the work in intranet in above example?
Below is the link I've mentioned.

Just move the HTML tags to where you want the text formatted?
