Answer 1

Hi,
If you are using CR2008.
Right click on the Field,
Click on 'Format editor'->On 'Font' Tab
The third option will be 'Size,. Click on 'X-2' Button belongs to Size ( Third one from top Right hand side).
Now Formula editor will popup. Write formula on that,
Like
if length({DB.Field1}) <= 10  then
10
else if length({DB.Field1}) > 10
12
OR, Better you can Go with select.
Select length({DB.Field1})
Case 1 to 5: 16
Case 6 to 10: 14
Case 11 to 15:12
default:
10
regards,
salah.
