textbox with multiline true

As I do to catch each line of a Textbox whose multiline = true

I don't know exactly what you mean, but if it is how to retrieve the whole text, is the same as any other text box, for ex.

MyText = Text1.Text

If you want to separate the text into individual lines, split it using vbCrLf, like this:

----------
MyText = Text1.Text
Dim i, p, q as Integer
Dim Line(100) as String
p = InStr (MyText, vbCrLf)
Line(i) = left (text1.Text, p)
While p
MyText = Right (Text1.Text, Len(text1.Text) - p - 1)
q = p
p = InStr (q, MyText, vbCrLf)
i = i + 1
Line(i) = left (text1.Text, p)
Wend
----------

Not tested, I do not have VB in this machine, but this is the approach.

(Sorry for the innaccuracy but nobody answered)

Find where the carriage return character is placed.
When you reach the carriage return character, the character before it represents one line.

I have put a sample code below:

The name of the textbos is txtMult.

Dim i As Integer 'The position of the Carriage Return character.
Dim intLineNo As Integer 'The Line No.
Dim intStartPos As Integer 'The Start Position of a line.

'Initialize.
i = 1: intLineNo = 1: intStartPos = 1

'Start search.
'chr(13) represents the Carriage Return character.
While (i <= Len(txtMult.Text))
i = InStr(i, txtMult.Text, Chr(13), vbBinaryCompare)
If (i = 0) Then
'We have reached the last line.
MsgBox "Line " & intLineNo & ": " & Mid(txtMult, intStartPos)
Exit Sub
End If
MsgBox "Line " & intLineNo & ": " & Mid(txtMult, intStartPos, i - intStartPos + 1)
intStartPos = i + 1 'New text reading Starting Position.
i = i + 1 'Next Search Position.
intLineNo = intLineNo + 1 'New Line No.
Wend

If you only show the vertical scrollbar the text will wrap without you pressing the enter key, so searching for the carriage return | line feed characters will not do you any good.

Read my article on how to extract one line of text from a textbox.

Good luck!
