i am using a richtextbox and have the following code:

VB Code:

clientLogTxtBox.SelectionLength = 0
clientLogTxtBox.SelectionStart = clientLogTxtBox.Text.Length
clientLogTxtBox.ScrollToCaret()

what's wrong in here? i have a lot of text and it doesnt go to the end of the richtextbox..

The RichTextBox has to have focus to scroll (which seems kind of stupid). You can switch focus away from it after it scrolls though.

VB Code:

clientLogTxtBox.Focus()
        clientLogTxtBox.Select(clientLogTxtBox.TextLength, 0)
        clientLogTxtBox.ScrollToCaret()
