>Yes, Tamar. I did try your suggestion...also added the carriage return too.
>It just doesn't seem to do the trick. After I add a new line, the editbox does not scroll to the bottom so that it shows the last lines of the editbox. I'm likely doing something incorrectly.
>Thanks very much for your help. I guess I'll just try to find some way around the issue.
