I am able to get fields to auto repeat data supplied in a previous field...
but how do I get each field to display its own format (font, size, bold,
etc.) automatically? If I have the original data with a font size of 28, the
other fields will automatically make the text the same size and font. I
don't want that. I want each field to be its own (different) size and font.
Is there a way to set each field so that they will automatically format the
text to the format I want for each field?

Use the \* CharFormat switch instead of the \* MergeFormat switch. The
formatting of the first non-space character in the field will be applied to
the field result.
