Click to expand...

textbox.text += "eeee" & vbcrlf
textbox.text += "rrrr" & vbcrlf
textbox.text += "dddd" & vbcrlf
 
Each time you are replacing the contents of the Text property - try this
instead:-
textbox.Text = "eeee" & vbcrlf
textbox.Text += "rrrr" & vbcrlf
etc

Also you may find a ListBox control is more suitable if you want a list of
text items.
