TextBox Breaks and new lines

[Jonathan Dixon]

I have a textbox and want to insert data into it from a datagrid like so


TextBox2.Text = "Milestone ID: " + mileid;
TextBox2.Text = TextBox2.Text + "Milestone Name: " + milestonename;
TextBox2.Text = TextBox2.Text + "Milestone Description: " + description;
TextBox2.Text = TextBox2.Text + "Milestone Folder: " + directory;
TextBox2.Text = TextBox2.Text + "Date Added: " + dateadded;


Is there any way to add a newline so that each bit of text appears on a
seperate line of the textbox


Thanks

You can't. A textbox is a one line only.
Use a textarea for it to work.

TextBox has property TextMode that can be set to MultiLine. Having set this,
you can insert newline character in the places you want.

VB:
import microsoft.visualbasic

where you want an "enter" put a "vbCrLf" like:

"firstline" & vbCrLf &_
"new line."
Hope this helps you
