display field content in large font

I want to display a large (16pt) version of the record # in a form.
I have found some code in other threads but wasn't sure if they were intended as formula fields or html tags.
Can HTML text blocks contain field content?
If not which kind of field can have alternate font sizes and what code do I need?​

    use a formula rich text field. Something like this should work there:

    "<span style='font-size:150%; font-weight:bold'>" & [Record ID#] & "</span>"

    You can play with the font size to get what you need, and you don't necessarily need the bold feature either

    try this then:

    "<span style='font-size:150%; font-weight:bold'>" & ToText([Record ID#]) & "</span>"

    no problem, yea, if you don't want to have the grey box, I think you'd have to mess around with some IOL techniques which I'm not too versed in.
