I know how to copy and create form fields using VBA, but how do I create or
copy the formatting? I am specifically concerned with uppercase, max width
2 characters, font color blue, but a general case will get me started.

For general formatting, use a character style. The field length limit is a
field property. Try recording a macro creating such a field and see what you
get.
