   No, not using a Label (or TextBox for that matter). You can do what you   
   ask using a RichTextBox though.   
      
   With RichTextBox1   
      .Text = " 52 in4 "   
      ' Select the character(s) to superscript   
      .SelStart = 6   
      .SelLength = 1   
      ' Set the amount of offset in TWIPS   
      .SelCharOffset = 75   
   End With
