Resizing parameters

I have designed a few reports in VS2005 with multi-parameter controls. When I
view these reports in VS they look fine, however once deployed and viewed in
the webbrowser (MS Internet Explorer) the drop-down boxes are too small (or
the font size is too big).
Is there a way to adjust (resize) the control boxes so you can make them
larger so it's easier for people to actually read where they can choose
between?
thanks,

As far as I know, there is not. This has been a common request on this
news group. Hopefully, this will be addressed in SSRS 2008. Otherwise,
you could try to inject CSS; however, I think that styling is only
allowed at the Report Manager page and report border level (though I'm
not sure). Sorry that I could not be of greater assistance.

It doesn't appear that my last reply posted; so, here it goes again.
As far as I know, this not possible. It has been a common request in
this newsgroup. Hopefully, a resolution for this will be provided in
SSRS 2008. The only other thing I can think of is to try and inject or
reference a CSS/stylesheet (but, I think this is limited to styling
the Report Mgr page, etc). Sorry that I could not be of greater
assistance.
