Hi anooj,

We can select the text the style of which needs to be modified at first. Then we need to set the SelectionFont property to set the selected text bold. This is a code snippet:

    //select the text ths style of which needs to be modified
    richTextBox1.Select(0,10);
    //Set the text bold.
    richTextBox1.SelectionFont = new Font(richTextBox1.SelectionFont,FontStyle.Bold);

These features are not in UI yet and you should add them yourself by using some methods and properties in RichTextBox class.
