possible to italicize only a portion of text in a textbox in Sql Server Reporting Services?  How to do this?
I am using Reporting Services 2005 tools (with sql server 2000 back end - yeah I know - disparate systems - tell that to I.T.). I need to generate invoices where only part of the text in a textbox is italicized. I specifically asked if I could just use the textbox property and have the non italicized text in a separate textbox. No. It needs to be like Html where I can <i><b>"..."</b></i>. Can the Format function do something like this? Could I write an external assembly to perform this task and have it return the char string italicized and non italicized? Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks

I am afraid that you will have to split your words into multiple textboxes and then do it, there is no other way. I have illustrated it in the blog below http://road-blogs.blogspot.com/2010/04/rich-text-in-ssrs-2008.htmlCheers, Jason P.S. : Please click the 'Mark as Answer' button if a post solves your problem! :)
