Second time I post it, diappeared the first time. Don't know why:
Hello everyone, I have searched quit a few webpages and have found several
result, but non that applied (or I could apply).
I have a report of my logbook in which there is a remarks-textbox. The size
of this box is fixed, but sometimes there is too much text to fit. I want to
apply a conditional formatting rule which changes the font-size based on the
amount of text used. Since this is not a option within access 2002 itself I
know I have to code it in VBA.
There already is use of a expression to combine the text needed inside the
textbox. Now I would like to get some help to use VBA to count the number of
letters used within this text box and then apply a change in fontsize
depending on that number. Can anyone help me?
Thank you in advance

I'll repeat my previous reply:
In the section's Format event:
If Len([FieldName])> 100 then
[FieldName].FontSize = 8
Else
[FieldName].FontSize = 10
End If
Also take a look at
