Step 2: Press the "Ctrl" key from the keyboard and press the number "2". The selected data range is now in bold.
Step 3: To remove the bold format, you need to press "Ctrl+2" again.
Please note that if part of the data range is already in bold, the shortcut will consider the range is in bold. When you press the shortcut, all the text or numbers in the range will remove the bold format.
