How to have multiple fonts in one report line in Access?

i'm trying to combine different fields into a single continuous phrase in my
report, using different fonts for different parts of the phrase :

species = Helianthus annuus (italics)
authority1 = Jamieson (bold)
ssp. text = ssp. (normal)
subspecies = officinale (italics)
authority2 = Weber (bold)

this is being used to generate labels for a plant collection. i've been able
to make a continuous phrase with the above entries by building an expression
in the Control Source of the field, but this doesn't allow me to have
multiple fonts; nor does the Conditional Formatting feature.

thanks!
 
www.lebans.com has a solution that should work if the phrase is all one
line.

Otherwise, you could use the Print method in the On Format event to print a
word, change the font, then print the next word. You would need to set the
same CurrentY property after each word.
