Does anyone have any idea how to change the size of text in a text box, once the user has typed something in using the slider component?

If you want to change the characteristics of textfield you need to use the TextFormatr class along with setTextFormat() commands.

Not really.  Depending on your intentions, it could be alot easier to just have the textfield inside a movieclip and have the slide change the scaleX/scaleY properties of the movieclip.
