Forgive a dumb Newbie, special character help [RESOLVED]

[Bahatmut]

Once more, please forgive the rantings of a dumb newbie. I have tried searching the MSDN library, and here, and some some of my other online resources. I am trying to find out what the characters are I need to append to the end of a string to force a carrige return for a textbox. I am returning several peices of string data and formatting them, but I need each disctinct entry to be on it's own line, but can't figure out how to force a carrige return or new line without playign really ugly games with the PadRight method.


Edit: Thanks a lot, MSDN is not exactly real easy to find info like that.....

txtWhatever.Text = "Hello" & vbCrLf & "World"

Hope that answers your question.

Well, the main reason that i'm replying is MSDN. You are partialy right, it's acctualy very hard to find whatever connected with the matter you are searching for. But the biggest issue there is terminology. Sometimes it is real nightmare to browse in MSDN all because we cannot seem to find the key words. However, MSDN is the greatest help you can find out ... The MSDN Library is an essential resource for developers using Microsoft tools, products, and technologies. It contains a bounty of technical programming information, including sample code, documentation, technical articles, and reference guides like no other site on the Internet devoted to .NET developers. Maybe you should take a look of this article "How to Use the MSDN Library Table of Contents"
