If you mean you want every occurrence of a word in your text to be
bold, then do Find/Replace (Ctrl-H), type the word in the upper box,
put your cursor in the lower box and type Ctrl-B, then click "Replace
All."

I know this, but how to make that Word would automatically find and make on
specific word in bold in the whole text?

See Peter's reply. There is no 'automatic' way of doing it. Replace is the
closest (or you could use a macro).

See Peter's reply. There is no 'automatic' way of doing it. Replace is
the closest (or you could use a macro).

You could make this transformation automatic by using an autocorrect
options and enable the formatting for that word.

I did this by the following steps:

1. Type the required word.

2. Make it bold manually

3. Select the word

4. Select AutoCorrect which comes up with the replacement word listed.

5. Type the same word in the replace column.

The most obvious downside is that this will apply to all documents
created from that point on.

The other obvious downside is that it will not work for existing documents
