The following code should work:

int targetchar = 0;
int targetline = 0; // target line number; zero based.
for(int i =0; i< targetline;++i)
targetchar+=textBox1.Lines.Length + Environment.NewLine.Length;
textBox1.SelectionStart = targetchar;
textBox1.SelectionLength = 0;
textBox1.Focus();

Thanks Pete but doesn't function.

The following code should work:

int targetchar = 0;
int targetline = 0; // target line number; zero based.
for(int i =0; i< targetline;++i)
targetchar+=textBox1.Lines.Length + Environment.NewLine.Length;
textBox1.SelectionStart = targetchar;
textBox1.SelectionLength = 0;
textBox1.Focus();
