Without seeing the code:

Guess #1: Code validation errors.

Guess #2: Superceeding styles in the CSS are preventing display of Bold Text.

Guess #3: The text you're attempting to edit is not within an editable region.

Open an HTML file. 

Toggle between Live & Design view with Ctrl + Shift + F11.

Edit > Paste Special can be inserted into Code or Design view panels.

Nancy, thanks. Actually, to stick with Bolding. I just tested some sompler odler html files and bold works fine in live view.  But this page or file specifically,  (clone of homepage - to an faq page)  in live view wont bold, go figure, any ideas?
