Expandable Text Boxes

Hello and welcome to the board.

To expand the text box, if you right click the mouse when over the mose and select properties, one of the properties is AutoSize, change this to True.

As for the spell check, no ideas yet.

Thanks. That helps, but can I set a max width?

Hello,

Sort of, you could set the MaxLength, this will only allow a certain number of characters.

But this isn't quite what you want is it?

What about this code?


Is this any better?

Sorry, I am a beginner. I don't even know where to put that code.

Hello,

Place the mouse over the text box, and press the right hand mouse button, Select View Code, you will have a window appear showing this


Delete this and paste the supplied code here.

OK?

Ok. I was using the drawing textbox. And the right click does not give the option of viewing the code. It was there when I used the control toolbox. This is not exactly want I want. I don't think I was very clear, sorry.

I am tring to crate a form that will be a series of feilds were text will be entered. I want to control the width, but I want the height to expand to fit the text. So when one box expands the whole form will have to expand so that the seond box will not be covered up by the first.

Was that a better explanation?
