Vertical scroll bar

[Sean Liming \(MVP\)]

I have a communication program using the SerialPort control. The application
performs the serial read in sPort_DataReceived thread and data is displayed
in a RichTextBox using the callback/invoke routine. The Vertical control
scroll bar is enabled so the user can scroll up and down to see the data
that has scrolled.

As data is comming, the Vertical scroll bar jumps to the top. I would like
to see the Vertical scroll bar position itself on the last line or the
bottom of the RichTextBox. Is there a way to do setting this?

Regards,

Sean

Herfried,

I used the first solution with one tweak and it works great!

As a fellow MVP, I thanks you!
