  Does anyone know if HyperCard 2.0 allows for multiple
  fonts and font styles with in a single field.

    Thanks

Yes.

"o Styled Text in Fields	o Lets you choose any combination of
				fonts, sizes and styles for text in
				HyperCard fields."

- from Apple's HyperCard 2.0 product spec. sheet (c 1990)

Yes, it does.  HyperCard 2.0 features font & style menus over to the right of
the "Objects" menu.

A bit more on styles in fields:

HC 2.0 supports varied styles within a field but if you move the text
to another container the moved text will not keep the varied
attributes. They will default to what ever the default is for the
container.

  My thanks to all who have answered my initial question reguarding
  multiple fonts and styles with in a single field.

  But now, I have another question: 
  Does HC 2.0 support tabs with in a field?

 Thanks
