A field's default text style is usually defined (in Layout mode) at the
design stage. If you want to override this for a particular cell, you can
use the 'do menu' command:

--================================

tell application "FileMaker Pro"
go to database "dbName"'s record 1's cell "fieldName" -- *
do menu menu "Edit"'s menu item "Select All"
do menu menu "Format"'s menu "Font"'s menu item "Geneva" -- *
do menu menu "Format"'s menu "Size"'s menu item "10 Point" -- *
go to database "dbName" -- * deselect (if required)
end tell

--================================

-- * = modify as required
