Powershell: save bold text into variable - excel

Question

I'd like to ask you for a help how to save bold text into variable from Excel via Powershell. I'm not a full time developer, just trying to make my life easier with Powershell :)
This is what I have (it's not a lot unfortunately):
# Open file test.xlsx
$excel = Open-ExcelPackage -Path './test.xlsx'
# Copy content of the worsksheet 'Sheet1'
$worksheet = $excel.Workbook.Worksheets['Sheet1']
# Copy specific cell value to the variable
$String = $worksheet.Value
$StringBold =
# Close Excel file
Close-ExcelPackage -ExcelPackage $Excel
I'm able to save content of the file test.xlsx into &worksheet variable. In some cell might be the string 'How are you today Marek?' So the next step should be to save only word Marek into the variable $StringBold
Thanks a lot for any advice.

After some research this seems possible using the ImportExcel Module, you just need to enumerate each cell and then access their .RichText property. Here is an example of how you can achieve it:
$xlsx = Open-ExcelPackage path\to\my.xlsx
$sheet = $xlsx.Workbook.Worksheets['mySheetName']
foreach($cell in $sheet.Cells) {
foreach($richText in $cell.RichText) {
if($richText.Bold) {
[pscustomobject]#{
Address = $cell.Address
Value = $richText.Text
}
}
}
}
Using this Sheet as an example:
The result with this code becomes:
Address Value
