VB - Changing font size with the Print# command

[MrMiller]

Is it possible to change the font size and use the print# command. Below you can sort of see what I want to do but it will not work. What is the proper method to achieve this?

Open FileName For Append Access Write Lock Write As #1
Font.Size = 16
Print #1, "Print Line 1 at font size 16"
Font.Size = 10
Print #1, "Print Line 2 at font size 10"
Close #1

The Print # statement is designed to store text as straight ASCII data, with date values stored in your local system short date format and numbers stored in an international format recognising local decimal separators.

To store text with font info you should look into the RichTextBox control, and its LoadFile and SaveFile statements, or you could hand-code the data as an HTML file.

Good Luck
