>Is there a built in control that I could use in an edit box to display (read-only) a whole bunch of text (i.e. pages of text). Currently users generate a report which pulls text from a bunch of places and presents it in a report (it is a report on some companies) but they do not like the preview window of reports. But using a report allowed for bolding of sections and use of different fonts to distinguish what was being pulled from where).

Have you taken a look at the web browser control for this? (You can't do it in an editbox.)
