How do you make some characters in a cell bold and some not?

I want to make some characters in a single cell bold and some not. How does
one format characters differently in the same cell?

Select the cell
In the formula bar, select the characters that you want to bold
On the formatting toolbar, click the Bold button
When finished, press the Enter key.

NOte that Debra's solution works only for cells containing literal text, not
text that is the result of a formula.
