  • The rest inside the conditional statement specifies the selection and then sets the BackColor of said selection
hey tysm for the explanation.. I wonder if I can ask you one more thing and maybe you can give me the lingo I need to research...For the same app when I get to the end of the textbox line it continues to fill in the numbers I press but they are off the screen and since scroll bars are shut off I have to click into the textbox and drag to the end just to see the end of the line..The app is a fixed size and scrollbars aren't useful to me.

Is there a way to make it autoscroll to the end of the line when it is no longer in view.. I only found docs to autoscroll to the end of the rtb down to the bottom...but im a one line text box im already at the bottom lol

thanks again in advance
