[RESOLVED] Chr(13)

[BubbleLife]

Hi all,

I'm trying to get a program to input some text from a file into a text box. The code adds spacing for the various values, I.E.

Text1.text = Text1.text & Chr(13) & Var1 & Chr(13) & Var2

Etc, etc. 13 should be the ASCII code for return, so it should add a return there. I've also tried Chr13 and chr 13, as well as Chr(10) which seems to be similar, all with no luck. Any advice?

Thanks,
Arby.

EDIT: "Text1.text" is a multi-line textbox. Interestingly, I put the following code on a little text-program which I was testing the code on:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Text1.Text = Chr13 & "-" & Chr13 & "-" & Chr(13) & Chr(50)
End Sub

What appeared in the textbox was:
--2

indicating that it *IS* picking up the Chr(Num) code. I wonder why 13 and 10 aren't working?

if you are trying to go to the next line try vbcrlf.

I have always used vbcrlf as a carriage return + linefeed.. chr(13) has never worked well for me in a text box..

so it would be like text1.text=text1.text & vbcrlf & .....

Whoo! It works, thank you people ^__^

I normally use vbcrlf, but I think chr(10) & chr(13) have to be used together. One is line break, and the other is carriage return, if I remember correctly.
