title: Microsoft Access - Override Maximum Font Size?
body: <p>Have a Access 2007 database which needs to have a report that prints out some really big numbers (for some signage).  Currently in Excel the template uses a 400 point font size.  When trying to change the font size in Access the following error message appears:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The setting of the FontSize property must be from 1 through 127</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I tried adding some VBA code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Me.Text0.FontSize = 400
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But this results in the same error message.</p>
  
  <p>Is there anyway to programmatically override the font limitation?  Or is it so hardcoded into Access that it can't be bypassed?</p>
