How do I have multiple styles in a figure caption

I want my figures to be formatted as follows: Figure 1: Figure description here. I can set the figure caption style under the style menu but I have to pick either bold or not it won't let me do both. I also want to cross-reference my figures in the text but when I do it puts the reference as bold but I want it to follow the 'normal' style of my document. How do I fix these issues? I realize you can make these changes manually but I am about to start writing a several hundred page document....
Use Alt+F9 to toggle on the display of the field codes and add a \*charformat switch to the REF fields and the format the R of REF with the desired format.  While it may seem to be just as easy to apply direct formatting to the cross reference, that will probably not be retained when the fields in the document are updated by the process of printing the document.
Hope this helps,
