Al --

I knew that. I did. I really did. And I thought that I had tried it.

Unfortunately, though, it appears that the report designer has a limit of 127 (why such a miniscule limit I cannot image)

I will check to see if that is gonna be sufficient.

Thanks

>IIRC dropdowns for various designers would not list font sizes over a certain size (might be 72 as you're seeing). The trick then was to type in the larger value you want, then it gets accepted.
