TextFormat not formating my text... Why?

This is not styling my text. What am I doing wrong?

Thank you!!!

this.textScroll.createTextField(“my_txt”, this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0, 0, 255, 200);
textScroll.my_txt.multiline = true;
textScroll.my_txt.html = true;
textScroll.my_txt.embedFonts = false;
textScroll.my_txt.wordWrap = true;
textScroll.my_txt.autoSize = “left”;
textScroll.my_txt.condenseWhite = true;

var tFormat_tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
tFormat_tf.bold = true;
tFormat_tf.italic = true;
textScroll.my_txt.setTextFormat(tFormat_tf);

var loadText_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var textDocPath:String = “…/txt/curriculum_vitae.txt”;
loadText_lv.load(textDocPath);
loadText_lv.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
// trace(success);
textScroll.my_txt.htmlText = this.myText;
} else {
textScroll.my_txt.text = “Error connecting to server.”;
}
};
