All I want to be able to do is push a button a to load a resources text file into a textbox , I have managed to do this after hours and hours of googling , videos, but it's quite a long document and I was wondering if I can have a scroll bar so it doesn't end half way through the text?

I have a textbox that shows events on a program, which I add. I use the 'scroll bar' option on the textbox to show the vertical scroll bar, but how do I make it stay at the bottom most possible? I am using this code while I am trying to learn how to do what I want the scroll bar to:[code]But how do I get it so the scroll bar will stay at the bottom-most it can? I'd like the newest, most recent events to appear at the bottom of the textbox, and to have the user not have to scroll down every time something new is added.

View 3 RepliesHeres my problem, My app outputs info into a textbox as a log and appends the new lines to the end of the textbox, is there a way i can scroll the textbox so it displays the end of the text? I had considered writing the line at the top and appending the rest of the data to it but the line is hard to do this way (it uses info from 2 seperate subs and would need a global or a new textbox) and ideally i would like the info at the end in chronological order. the textbox is refreshed at the end of each entry.
View 2 RepliesI have a texbox that I'm using for a P2P IM program. The box stores all messages but I cannot get it to automatically scroll down to the most recent IM when the box is full and scrollbars are necessary. eg. When a user gets enough messages that they must start using the scrollbars, when a new message comes, the scrollbars reset to the top instead of the bottom where the new message is. Here's the code for adding the message into the box:

I have a program that adds text to a textbox. The textbox is multi-line and has a vertical scroll bar. I want to have my textbox to scroll down automatically when new text is added, however, I do not want the other controls on the form to loose focus.I have tried the following code with no success:
Private Sub txtlog_TextChanged()
txtLog.SelectionStart = Len(txtLog.Text)
End Sub
The code above simply produced no results, it didn't move the scroll bar at all.

1.I want the text to scroll down in the textbox.
Well, if I use AppendText() it does something like this, but if you scroll up, then each time you receive a message you will be scrolled all the way down.
Is there a way to make it scroll all the way down if I am scrolled at the bottom? Meaning, it would check the textbox where its scrolled at, then it would if scrolled to the bottom, and the text and scroll down, otherwise, it would just add the text.
2.Is there a way to make the mouse scroller scroll the textbox? currently it onlt does so when the textbox is the active control on the form, but can I make it always scroll it when the mouse is placed over the control, like it seems to do in MSN when you have a chat open for someone and you are typing a message, you can scroll at the same time without moving focus to the top part where the text is displayed.
I'm currently using a textbox to scroll some info. The problem is it scrolls one line at a time. This creates not a smooth scrolling action ( jumps one line at a time ). I would like a scrolling action like you see in movie credits scrolling smoothly vertically. I don't know if this is even possible with a textbox.
View 7 RepliesI have a textbox which is inside the second tab of a tab container. When I load the form, I load a file into that textbox. Is there any way to send the scrollbar at the bottom of the text box. I want to show only end part of the file.I have tried this, but it does not work (maybe because is inside a tab container?):
Textbox1.SelectionStart = Textbox1.TextLength
Textbox1.ScrollToCaret()
I am using VB .NET. I want to know how to make the scroll-up and down arrows visible for my text boxes if the user wishes to enter more lines of text than the size of the text box can take. I would like the user to be able to scroll up and down after he/she has entered all the text.
How do I activate this property - should I be using some other control other than a text box for this?
So I have a custom listbox that is displaying garbage text when scrolling horizontally. I need the custom listbox to stop an annoying flicker, but it's causing issues with the scroll. I think I could solve the issue if only I could access the hscroll event, but I don't know how to do that. I will put down my custom listbox class just in case you will need it to understand the problem.
Edit: I realized my question is a little vague - telling me how to access the hscroll event within the listbox will suffice

I have two panels, and I want them to both scroll horizontally with one scroll bar, but I only want one of them to scroll vertically. So if I have a large panel on autoscroll, it works fine for that panel, but I have another smaller panel above that, could I make the smaller panel scroll horizontally with the larger panel's horizontal scrollbar?

I have a small problem with my web browser; Here is what I want to do! After my web browser document completes, I want it to scroll down to a specific text box. For example If there is a text box at the end of the page, I want my web browser to scroll down to that text box automatically after the page loads. I managed to do that with this code,
PHP
Webbrowser1.Document.Window.ScrollTo(0, 1900)
The problem with this code, this text box is not always at the same coordinate, sometimes its at the button of the page, sometimes at the middle, or top. Now how can I scroll down to wherever the text box is located. That's all I need to do, and this is the html page code
PHP
<input type="text" id="response" value="" maxlength="10" name="response" size="16">

View 2 RepliesI've got a Checked List Box full of PC names that the user can check. I've also got a Combo Box that lists the location of the PCs - if the user chooses one of the locations in the Combo Box, it automatically selects all of the PCs in the Checked List Box that are at that location.
However, if that group of PCs are way down the list in the Checked List Box, you can't immediately see that they were checked.I'd like to know if there was a way to have the application automatically scroll/jump down to the area of the Checked List Box containing the PC's that were just checked.

View 1 RepliesI want to search the text in my multiline textbox with a vertical scrollbar:
mEvent.Focus()
mEvent.SelectionStart = InStr(mEvent.Text, FindString.Text) - 1

This works fine, but if the found text is too far down, I have to manually scroll down to see it. How can I automatically scroll down so that the found text is visible in the text box?
I have a simple Sub:
[code]...
It's job is to scroll the textbox (txt_folderactivity) after I update the text box with a new entry. The textbox is multi-line, so this keeps us at the bottom so we can see the new stuff. This sub gets called whenever any of the other subs add a line for things like file rename, deletion, etc. based on file system events (using Public watchFolder as FileSystemWatcher).I had a crossthread issue with just updating the textbox, but I wrote in a Delegate /Invoke for that and it works fine (something I found online earlier this morning), but now I have another issue and I'm not sure how to work it.
I'm getting a crossthread issue with this specific Sub specifically at the SelectionLength, and I'd like to set it up with a Delegate and Invoke and such, but I don't know how specifically. I've searched and read, but I don't get it. Do I need a seperate invoke on each of the 3 lines, or is there an overarching Invoke for the whole bit I'm still new-ish to VB and I don't know how to proceed. I've read some MSDN pages and stuff, but they aren't explaining what the problems is really and what I need to do (or prehaps I'm just not getting it).
