VB

Dim Rinfo As String = fName & "-" & fKM & vbCrLf & "" & fEmail

Im sorry I though you were programming in WPF, and if thats not the case than I must appologize. But you proberbly should do some of the same things with a textbox, that I suggested you do with a RichTextBox in WPF.

You have to select the text you want to format. This is done through the caret position. You can see one example of it here:
