Appending text to a text box on new lines
[Access 2003] I am trying to append a variable amount of lines to a text box, i am using the following approach. All the records display, however it is all on one line. Why doesnt this work?
txt_outPut.SetFocus
txt_outPut.Text = "Fabric Cost " & fabPrice
Do Until (rstRST2.EOF)
txt_outPut.Text = txt_outPut.Text & vbCrLf
txt_outPut.Text = txt_outPut.Text & rstRST2.Fields("description") & " " & rstRST2.Fields("cost")
rstRST2.MoveNext
Loop

Re: Appending text to a text box on new lines
is your textbox set to multiline?
i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next
dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part
come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

excel textboxes have multiline property, so i guessed access ones would too
