I'm new to active x controls - this is my first one - I'm trying to create an activex text box control that has more functionality then the standard textbox control. I use the wizard to create my properties but when I use the next control on a form I don't see all of the properties I thought I created. Why is this? For instance, I want the multiline property to be available to the developer but it isn't in the property list. I tried doing the following in the load event of my form

ctltextbox.multiline = true

and it gave me an error when I ran the program.

Compile error: Wrong number of arguments and invalid property assignment.

Why can't I access this property??
