Hi,

go to "View" and activate "DesignGrid".

Now go to a column header, right mouse click and choose "Custom Format Cell". Select "Bold". It´s on the right side of the menue.

Good luck!

Hi,

i don´t know exactly the english translations for the menu items, but try:

Right click on column header --> Cell format

If you don´t see this menu item:

Settings --> User settings --> Design --> Check: Always show all commands in object-menu (The point on the bottom right) --> Try right click on column header again --> Cell format

Now you have the chance to edit the format.

Kind regards.

I believe you are referring to Pivot table in QlikView. Click on the + sign of the expression and write '<b>' in 'Text Format' expression.

But this bolds the whole column, not only the header.

Yep, but it can be tricked setting a never fulfilled by values IF() condition. The values will remain unbolded, while the header is bolded. But it depends on the data.
