Small problem here, tried every thing I can, no luck.

In the text file you’ll see I have the first sentence in bold, but when you render the move all the text is in bold. The second sentence is blue but upon rendering it is black.

Can anyone help please?

Html tags would take to long personally; I would rather bring the text in to flash select it at change at will. When you said use font tags I for some reason, selected the render as html button in the properties panel and boom — there she is.

So, Thanks for braken the box.
