I got curious so I whipped up a quick test form with a single rich text control 
text box on it. I tried to assign the font size in the property sheet to 200 
and VFP whinged at me about illegal values. So then I set both the value and 
font size of the control in the form init. Run the form and VFP 9 (SP1) just 
shutdown. I expect you will have to ask someone from the VFP dev team why this 
limitation is in there but it seems pretty clear you are not going to be able 
work around it even by using a non-native control. Time to try Dabo? <g,d&r>

Jim,
In reports (.FRX) you can actually patch the font size into the reports file
for fonts greater than 127. 

I found this out when I needed large fonts on box end labels and found the
same problem.

It may well be worth hacking a the scx file and patching in the font size as
required to see if it works.

Yes, I would also like to know why VFP has this limitation.
