You can use the Left or Right function which returns a string containing a specified number of characters from the left/right side of a string.

Example: =Left(Fields!MyText.Value,3)

To get the text in bold you could use CSS but then you'll have to make sure you're using the HTML markup type in the Placeholder Properties:

In the end your expression could look something like this:

="<b>" + Left(Fields!MyText.Value,3) + "</b>" + Right(Fields!MyText.Value,3)

I didn't realize you were using VS 2005 , I'd definitely recommend updating t a newer version, (t least VS 2010. You can even get the free community VS 2013 from here https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/news/vs2013-community-vs.aspx – Oceans Oct 09 '15 at 11:19
