Find the Size of Your Font

The Font Size tool on the Formatting toolbar lists sizes from 8 to 72, but Access isn't limited to those sizes. You can specify a Font Size property from 1 to 127 using VBA. For instance, to change a report's font size, you'd use code similar to

Dim rpt as Report
Set rpt = "rptMyReport"
rpt.FontSize = 24

Just because you specify a font size doesn't mean Access or your printer will be able to accommodate that size with the specified font. You must have the appropriate font installed, and the font itself must be able to accommodate the size you choose. If it can't, Access will substitute a similar font if possible.
