In excel, how do I set the cell font to be bold programatically?

My code so far follows:
C#
dr = GFun.ReadSql(sql);
xlRow = 3;
while (dr.Read())
{
    //ColName.Name = dr[0].ToString().Trim();
    xlWorkSheet.Cells[xlRow,1] = dr[0].ToString().Trim();
    chartRange = xlWorkSheet.get_Range("A" + xlRow, "E" + xlRow);
    chartRange.MergeCells = true;
    chartRange.Cells.Font.Bold = true;
    chartRange.Cells.Font.FontStyle = HorizontalAlignment.Center;

    xlRow = xlRow + 1;
    xlWorkSheet.Cells[xlRow, 1] = "Date";
    xlWorkSheet.Cells[xlRow, 2] = "Session 1";
    xlWorkSheet.Cells[xlRow, 3] = "Session 2";
    xlWorkSheet.Cells[xlRow, 4] = "Session 3";
    xlWorkSheet.Cells[xlRow, 5] = "Session 4";
    xlRow = xlRow + 1;
}

I wrote the line below but in excel it is not bold. How can I do this? From my code below, what is the mistake? Please help me.

C#
chartRange.Cells.Font.Bold = true;

Try chartRange.Font.Bold = true; instead of chartRange.Cells.Font.Bold = true;.

Here I show you all code to set excel font:
C#
//set name
sheet.Range["A3:E3"].Style.Font.FontName = "Comic Sans MS";
//set size
sheet.Range["A2:E2"].Style.Font.Size = 50;
//set excel cell data to be bold
sheet.Range["A3:E3"].Style.Font.IsBold = true;
//set excel cell data to be underline
sheet.Range["A3:E3"].Style.Font.Underline = FontUnderlineType.Single;
//set excel cell data color
sheet.Range["A4:E14"].Style.Font.IsItalic = true;
