How to Unlink and Unformat Hyperlinks Between Two Characters?

Unlink Hyperlinks Between Brackets.docm

Have a macro called "Remove_Hyperlink_Between_Characters" (attached ) that is intended to unlink text that sites between two characters, < and > in this version, and remove whatever underlining and bold the link has (in other words, make it plain text). This is usually for email addresses that end up being links and become bold and underlined when copied from an online email client.

It works perfectly except that it does not remove the bold for some reason. The intellisense is not working when I enter the ".bold", but does with the .underline, so obviously I'm missing something here.

The attachment has the code and some samples that get unlinked but if they start out bold, remain bold, and I want their boldface removed.

What am I missing?
