Dynamic input text field

Hi all,

This is possible to dynamically create input textfields and then style them with new textFormat something like  
[AS]  
this.createTextField(“txtBox\_txt”, 1, 50, 50, 200, 20);  
textBox = new TextFormat();  
textBox.background = true;  
textBox.backgroundColor = 0xffffff;  
textBox.bold = true;  
txtBox\_txt.setNewTextFormat(textBox);  
[/AS]  
or is it possible to use the new TextFormat object on a input text field that is manually been placed on the stage. So I create a input text field called input\_txt and then style it.  
[AS]  
textBox = new TextFormat();  
textBox.background = true;  
textBox.backgroundColor = 0xffffff;  
textBox.bold = true;  
input\_txt.setNewTextFormat(textBox);  
[/AS]
