How Do I Put An End Of Line Character In A TextBoxHow would I put an end of line character in the second line below?
Textbox1.Text = "Hello " Textbox1.Text = Textbox1.Text = "World" Thanks, Chris Lusardi I didn't know vbcrlf existed. At the top of some of my programs I have
dim crlf as string = Chr(13) & Chr(10) guess I don't need that but now I have to type vbcrlf instead of crlf.

I once asked you to make a testset and you told than that you had not the time to type that. Why are you advicing that long code, while there is that simple vbcrlf. In C# I find the 'ControlChars.NewLine' a very good alternative for the literal. But VB has a better solution for that. Cor Show quoteHide quote "Herfried K.

Herfried is promoting using something that would be the same from language to language. VB also has vbNewLine. Frankly everything is getting long. I almost stuck with dimming my own, crlf, as it is 4 chars instead of vbCrLf's 6. And actually thought about using nl for newline but it wasn't quite as obvious when reading the code. Anyway I went with vbCrLf as it doesn't need a dim and I'll get used to it.

But VB has a better solution for that. the system's new line character and on getting a system-independent new line character sequence. The first can be done using 'Environment.NewLine' in both VB.NET and C#. For the latter there are different ways in VB.NET and C#. In C# typically new line character sequences are embedded as escape codes inside string literals: \\\ string s = "Hello\r\nWorld" /// The equivalent code in VB.NET would be \\\ Dim s As String = "Hello" & ControlChars.CrLf & "World" /// or alternatively \\\ Dim s As String = "Hello" & vbCrLf & "World" /// 'vbNewLine' and 'ControlChars.NewLine' both are constants which have the same value as 'vbCrLf'. IIRC 'vbNewLine' has been introduced in VBA once to support /different/ newline character sequences in VBA on Windows and on the Mac. Personally I generally prefer 'ControlChars.NewLine' or 'vbNewLine' over 'ControlChars.CrLf' and 'vbCrLf' because its name is semantically more meaningful and I do not care about the value of the constant too much. However, if the exact character codes are important, then I prefer 'CrLf' and 'vbCrLf'. -- M S Herfried K. Wagner M V P <URL:http://dotnet.mvps.org/> V B <URL:http://classicvb.org/petition/> LOL
