How to "\n " in a VBScript MsgBox( )

[stevepuri]

How do you do the JavaScript equivalent of "\n" for a newline in a VBScript message box.

JavaScript: alert("Line 1" + "\n" + "Line 2"

VBScript : MsgBox("Line 1" & "??" & "Line 2&quot

Thank you,
Steve.

Sometimes you have to use both Carriage Return and a Line Feed
.... & Chr$(13) & Chr$(10)

I sometimes use VB constants because they are familiar and easier to remember... like vbCrLf produces the Carriage Return and Line Feed. Things like vbInformation and vbQuestion work for the MsgBox icons instead of trying to remember what numbers produce what icons.

How do you put a newline when writing text to a text box. I tried vbcrlf but that didn't really work.

your textbox your writing to has to accept more than one line. I.E.
the property in a textbox created by Visual Basic is the multiline property only if this set to true can the textbox have more than one line.

What textbox are you trying to write to? Klae

You're only as good as your last answer!
