My users would like to be able to customize fonts and sizes in the reports
that I bundle with my program. Is this level of customization (@ runtime)
available in the VStudio.NET version of Crystal Reports?

I know how you can do this on a small-scale basis. Create parameter fields
for as many fonts & sizes that you need to customize individually. Then, for
each control that is to use the custom fonts, give its font fields formulae
that specify the font name & size.

If you have a lot to customize, this approach would still be possible, but
hard to manage & maintain.

HTH,
Peter

You can also change fonts via ReportDocument object model. You can change
font for Text and Field object.

Here is code that may help you:

where:

oRpt = new ReportDocument ();

        protected void btnFont_Click_1 (object sender,
System.EventArgs e)
        {
            Sections sections = oRpt.ReportDefinition.Sections;
            Section section =
sections[lstSections.SelectedIndex];

            ReportObject reportObject =
section.ReportObjects[cboName.SelectedIndex];

            if (txtKind.Text.StartsWith ("Field Object"))
            {
                FieldObject fieldObject = (FieldObject)
reportObject;

                FontDialog fieldFont = new FontDialog();

                if (fieldFont.ShowDialog
()==DialogResult.OK)
                    try
                    {

fieldObject.ApplyFont(fieldFont.Font);
                    }
                    catch(EngineException Ex)
                    {
                        MessageBox.Show
(Ex.Message,"SCREngineException Error" );
                    }
                    catch (Exception Ex)
                    {
                        MessageBox.Show
(Ex.Message,"Exception Error");
                    }
            }
            else if (txtKind.Text == "Text Object")
            {
                TextObject textObject = (TextObject)
reportObject;

                FontDialog fieldFont = new FontDialog();

                if (fieldFont.ShowDialog
()==DialogResult.OK)
                    try
                    {

textObject.ApplyFont(fieldFont.Font);
                    }
                    catch(EngineException Ex)
                    {
                        MessageBox.Show
(Ex.Message,"SCREngineException Error" );
                    }
                    catch (Exception Ex)
                    {
                        MessageBox.Show
(Ex.Message,"Exception Error");
                    }
            }


        }

Thanks,
Sanja

Does anyone know how to apply different fonts or styles in the same textbox object?

I need to make a report that presents a paragraph in the textbox. And this paragraph needs to have at least words in bold and italics.
