VB.NET - Autosize font to fit multiline textbox

VyReN asked:

Greetings -- Have been looking around for an answer for a long time without luck.

VB.NET 2010 - I am looking to take a string from a database (No newlines, but may in the future) and display the text in a multiline textbox with wordwrapping and have the text's font size adjust to ensure all the text is displayed. Strings are between 50 to 300 characters in length, so the font size can vary wildly.

Doable?

Thanks!
