i am building a small chat program. it looks like AOL's imstand messanger.
it uses to rich text boxes and  the bottom one sends text to the top one
using the code below to send the text to the box on the next line. the top
box everyone see's EX>

Private Sub cmdAdd_Click()
Dim stUID As String
stUID = "(UserName)"
rtb1.Text = rtb1.Text + vbNewLine + stUID + ":>" + rtbAdd.Text


End Sub

it works correctly but i when there is too many lines the new text can't be
seen i have the scroll bar and you can scroll by hand but i want itto
automaticly scroll to that last line of text.

if anyone can help me with this or anything doing with building an chat
program please post or email me at deforest@mkl.com
