Hi all,

I am looking to add a data control to a text area but without success,
can anynow help me or suggest an alternative to a text area control.
But i need a control that can hold a lot of txt and a txt box is
totally inpractable.

cheers

Don`t know if i completely understand what you try to do ( because of the
text with the above subject )

You want to add a data control to a text area ?? (do you mean  the contents
of a data column from your database  ) 

Just set the multiline property of the textbox to true , set the apropriate
scroll behavior ( vertical perhaps )  now resize the textbox to the estimated
size wich might hold your data an ready you are  ,,,, you can mimic the
behavior of a textarea control in html   ( it would look like this
