    No (not in Windows or standard C++ at least)

    Have a look at the post by Perica on this thread http://cboard.cprogramming.com/showt...ole+AND+colourThis is only going to suit certain applications, and certainly is not standard, but I get the feeling that is may be suitable for you anyway.

    You should be able to find a bright white colour. In a body of text this would then stand out, it's not exactly bold, but it may suit your purposes.
    Demonographic rhinology is not the only possible outcome, but why take the chance
