scroll bar

Hi:
I created a text box with vertical scroll bar that displays curent data coming from a port. Once the information exceed the text box I no longer can see the last line unless I scroll down.
I would like to always see the last data w/o scrolling down.
I used the following command to diplay my data in the text box:
Text3.Text = Text3.Text & point & vbCrLf

Is there anyway I can do this w/o deleteing the previous data?
Thanks.

I'ed be interested in knowing the same. I hate that flicker you get when you use this method.

I haven't tested it yet, but I would expect that

Text1.SelStart = len(Text1.Text)


would do what you want.

This would place the cursor/insertion-point at the last character in the TextBox. I would still expect it to flicker, though- since the data is constantly being updated.

Text3.SelStart = len(Text3.Text)
Text3.SelText = point & vbCrLf

There are a couple of APIs that get/set the TopRow of the Multi-line text. Just look into MSDN. or look into articles section of this site.
