I want to send text to an edit box and then have it start on a new line in the edit box when I send text again- or is there a better way-I actually want to send messages to the box to show what is happening-one message at a time -e.g. I create a panel and I want to send a message the edit box 'panel created'.If I create a listbox I want to send a message 'listbox created' without wiping out the first message like:
panel created
listbox created
I hope this is clear enough and someone can help me.

Using a listbox would be a better method than using an edit gadget, although you can insert a new line using the chr$(13)+chr$(10) combination (it may be the other way round - I cannot remember off-hand)

char$(10) = '\n'
and char$(13) = '\r'?

If so, Then yes, that should work

Yes, the 13 is first, the 10 second:

#CONSTANT NEWLINE chr$(13)+chr$(10)

And yes, the 10 is the \n or newline, while the 13 is the \r or carriage return.
