Textbox Scroll Issue

[Materialised]

Ok, I have trawled google groups for the last hour, and have found no >net
work around to my issue.

Basically my problem is a simple one. I have a multiline textbox and a
command button. When the button is pressed text is appended to the text box.
I would like the textbox to automatically scroll to the end of the data to
be added.
In VB6 I would do it with:

TextBox1.SelStart = Len(TextBox1.Text)

However I can't seem to find a VB.net (2005) workaround.

I have tried:

Textbox1.Focus()
Textbox1.SelectionStart = TextBox1.TextLength

However that didn't work.
If anyone could help me out I would be thankful

Regards.
