If I have 3 textboxes on a form plus 1 multiline textbox.

How can I add the text from textbox 1 to 3 to the multiline textbox ?

I can add the 3 textbox contents to one line of the multiline textbox, but
need each text line to appear on seperate lines.

this is driving me crazy, please help
 
Add an Environment.NewLine (this might not be the correct spelling but
close - no dot.net access on this PC) to each line that you add to the
multiline textbox.

Or,
Dim value As String

value = Constants.vbCrLf

TextBox4.Text = TextBox1.Text & value & TextBox2.Text & value &
TextBox3.Text
 
Ian,

This is a 24hour 7 days up newsgroup. That despite of most forums, however
it has not a 10 minute reponse rate for every message, therefore please wait
a while.

If you are using Outlook express, connect than direct to one of the
microsoft newsservers as by instance news.microsoft.com and not to the
newsserver of your provider, that will speed up your wait time.

Why do you assign the contstant to a string ? this will degrade the
performance of the app as this means that on every usage a scan takes place
in the string table
you would better use the contstant as is

By the way i believe that environment.newline is the better way in terms
of portability
