BOLD is used in Special Procedures to set the current record as bold. UNBOLD is used in Special Procedures to reset to plain the current record, or optionally, all bolded records in the subset.

A -(For UNBOLD only) reset all bolded records in this subset
X -Suppress the command response
Y -Do not alter the command answer cells
Notes:
The context for both of these commands is that there is a Screen displaying data records, and one of those records is the current record, that is, the cursor is on a particular record. This is the "current record" referred to in the above command description.
The BOLD command is one of the methods by which a record can be set to bold. The other is that the user can set any record to bold by doing a shift+click. (This is standard behavior for all screen types.) In this manner the user can "select" records. A procedure can determine which records were "selected" via theSELECT/B
command.
