You'll probably need to create 3 report fields. The first one would have LEFT(SSN,4), the second SUBSTR(SSN,5,2), and the third RIGHT(SSN,5). I'm assuming the SSN field contains the dashes. Then you can set the middle one to a different font.

>xxx-XX-xxxx with the capital XX as a diferent font (like the appearance in a rich text box)
