Stacy,

There is a faster way to do the clean-up.

1. Find the first incorrect entry and fix this. Then while the cursor
is still located in the "Bold" character tag, do an Edit > Copy
Special > Character format. This will load the Bold character tag to
Frame's clipboard. 

2. Now go to the next incorrect Bold entry and place your cursor in
the bold text.

3. Start the Find/Replace (ctrl + F). In the Find list, select
"Character Format...". this will now pop-up with the attributes of the
"wrong" bold (i.e. the cursor location) and click the "Set" button for
this window. For the Change list, select "By Pasting...". This will
now let you quickly do the changes. Use the Find/Change button to
satisfy yourself that this is working as expected and then do the
Change All to do it in one go.

The question remains, why aren't the styles updating properly when you
import the Formats. Are you certain that the original files "Bold"
character format had the Font set to "As Is"? If it was set to the
actual font instead, and the imported one is set to "As Is", then the
base font won't get changed.
