Scrolling... not scrolling actually

[limsniffer]

How do I, by the press of a button, scroll down 4 (or any other user definable number) lines down in my textbox? Pressing the scrollbar itself only scrolls down 3 lines.

I've tried 4 x sendkeys chrw(40) but that doesn't work, plus it would be great if it didn't move the marker around.

Pleas help me, I've been at it for too long now

Sincerly,
limsniffer!

Can you post a piece of your code so that i can also work on it to find out the solution..

[limsniffer]

Well, I haven't written any code for it, because I honestly down know where to begin to make it work.
This is what i want to do:

Private Sub Command1_Click()

Text1.Text scroll down 4 lines

End Sub

That's pretty much it!

Sincerly,
limsniffer

Private Sub Command1_Click()

Text1.SetFocus
SendKeys "{DOWN 4}"

End Sub

Finally!
It works!

Well, almost. I only want to scroll down 4 lines, if I already am at the bottom of the textbox. Is there any way to detect which line the marker is on?

Thanks a lot!

You can do it using a RichTextBox.

MsgBox RichTextBox1.GetLineFromChar(RichTextBox1.SelStart)

This code will still work as well:

RichTextBox1.SetFocus
SendKeys "{DOWN 4}"

Okay, I'll just switch to a richtexbox then.

Thank you for all your help!
