textbox

[Steve]

In vb.net 2003
Tha language is english
Is there any way to make a textbox type right to left. I saw this option in
the properties of the textbox. But from reading documents online I
understand it to only work in a couple of languages. Thanks for any help.

Hi Steve
There is the RightToLeft Property of the TextBox that you need to set to
yes it should work even if you are using a left to right lanugaue.

Use TextBox1.RightToLeft = True. It works on my Spanish machine...

Set your textbox control's 'TextAlign' property to 'Right' instead.
'RightToLeft' only makes sense for certain languages.
