I think this depends on whether the word you refer to is the total 
contents of a cell or just part of it. Formatting in a spreadsheet is 
generally handled on a cell basis, not by character. So although you 
can indeed manually set part of the contents of a cell to, say, bold, 
I don't think there is going to be any way to apply this automatically.


And I don't see any way to achieve what you want as local formatting, 
even if the word is the entire contents of a cell. But there is a workaround:

o Create a cell style including the Bold attribute.
o Select an appropriate cell range - perhaps even an entire sheet or sheets.
o Use Conditional Formatting to apply the Bold cell style to any cell 
whose contents are exactly your word.


I trust this helps.
