Craig,

one further observation. If the field already contains formatted text, ie
bold or coloured, doing what you are doing would set everything back to
plain text except for word 2 so in most cases (but I accept not all) you'd
want to do deal with htmlText exclusively:

put the htmlText of fld "myField" into tHtml --not the plain text
replace "<b>" with "<box><b>" in line 2 of  tHtml
replace "</b>" with "</b></box>" in line 2 of tHtml
set the htmlText of fld "myField to tHtml

Of course one case where you would one to swap from one to the other is if
you want to strip HTML tags. Set the htmlText of a field to a html file,
then put the field into a Var, most of the html is then nicely stripped for
you :-)

A tad safer and more general technique is to

put "<box>" before word 2 of tHtml
put "</box>" after word 2 of tHtml

As other said, variable have htmltext property, just the content which can be html, so you need to work with it directly. Html comes into effect when such a content is put into a field and then displayed to user.
