    Question

    Hi all,

    I want to present a text file (a big one) on a form.
    I tried to print on the form itself what it was not good enough.
    I want to text to look simple like on notepad - without any format, and I want to have the possibility to scroll it up and down.
    Which control is the best for the job?

    BTW - I read the original text from another file on the HD and than I present it.

    Thanks.

    Lightbulb why not ...

    Why don't you just put a large textbox and put the backcolor the same as your form.

    Yeah the TextBox would be the best, set the Multiline to true and the scrollbars to 3 - both and load the file in it.
    Strange you never heard of a textbox and you can read from a file...
