Now we're getting somewhere. Do this:

[snip]

4.) In the message window enter this:
     put the HTMLText of field "yourField" into field "yourField"

5.) Now edit the markup you see by adding bold, underline, box, 
italics, and other tags that Rev indicates useful in the docs on 
HTMLtext

6.) In the message window enter this:
     set the HTMLText of field "yourField" to field "yourField"
