vb6 Question

[f1tzy]

Heyy guys, never really been huge in the coding department as it will show, but i could use a hand if you don't mind


intention: as each name is added it will move down one line and then be written to a .txt doco

code as far:

Private Sub optSlow_Click()
If optChina = True Then
    txtInfo = txtInfo.Text & "Yim Chan <NEW LINE> Yow Choi <NEW LINE>"
Else
End If
End Sub

so yeah basically, where it says <NEW LINE> i want to go down to next line

Private Sub optSlow_Click()
If optChina = True Then
    txtInfo = txtInfo.Text & "Yim Chan" & vbCrLf & "Yow Choi" & vbCrLf
Else
End If
End Sub

Ahh.. but see you need both vbCrLf is carriage return and line feed (Chr(10) and Chr(13)).. vbNewLine is only.. line feed I think..

Yeah but not all text editors on windows parse a carriage return or a line feed by itself.. as a new line. They just insert the character there and continue on that line.. which is why you need both (Chr(10) & Chr(13), or, vbCrLf ). Lucky the RichTextBox control passes them though.

Lucky that they included a carriage return for you.. Aren't microsoft lovely?
Ugly VB6 Code.
VB.NET makes crashing your program MUCH easier.
