How to Bold specific parts of text document automatically.

Hello,

I have a document that has time codes spread throughout the text. The only thing common between them is the format that is [hh:mm:ss]. The hh, mm and ss values are variable.

I need all these time codes to be bold formatted.

Replace function does a great job in formatting the same text throughout the sheet, but I can't find any function that allows me to do that for formats or masks. Like if I could somehow program it to embolden everywhere [ ] occurs and everything in between.

Was hoping if someone could help me out with it.

Thanks,
Yasir

Use a Wildcard search and replace for

[0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}}
