How to select multiple words without selecting the entire paragraph?

This would work for some of my purposes, but unfortunately not all of them. We use this to apply document conventions to user selections/clicks. I could use this suggestion for these options. So things like the following. The button the user clicks needs to be bolded in the documentation:

1. Click Apply.

2. Click Next.

Sometimes, though, it is more complicated words or long strings of text such as file names. I have to apply formatting to those that make the font courier new instead of Arial which is our default. 

My company might move away from FM since we only use it for one document at the moment, but I will still make the suggestion because I think it should definitely be added. Thank you for sending me this. 

Ah, but @Winfried Reng , that's contingous text. The OP wants to do something like this in the bold parts:

Yes, Yes, without the oops! Jaguar shark! So tell me - does it really exist? I was part of something special. Must go faster. God help us, we're in the hands of engineers. Hey, take a look at the earthlings. Goodbye! Yes, Yes, without the oops! Yeah, but John, if The Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down, the pirates don’t eat the tourists.
