text formatting functions

I'm almost embarrassed to ask this question -- I'm sure it's so simple. But I can't find the answer in FileMaker's help files nor in my copy of Special Edition: Using FileMaker. (Doesn't mean the answer's not there; just that I can't find it.)

I want to use more than one text formatting function in a calculation, i.e. add color and add style.

What is the syntax for using more than one text formatting function in a single calculation?

As always, TIA.

The result of one becomes the input of the next:

function2 ( function1 ( field; option ) ; option )

It is so simple! But I couldn't find it anywhere (although I should have been able to figure it out).

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
