Multi-line in CEdit

[qzou666]

Hi,

I want to place a mutli-line CString on a CEdit, but the line break "\n" does not break line. "\n" displayed as a symbol like "[]". Please help me out here. The following is the code:

Ctring test="";

for (int i=0; i<20; i++)
{ CString line=&quot;New line\n&quot;
test+=line;
}

CEdit* pEdit;
....//get the edit
pEdit->SetWindowText(test);


The text on CEdit is something like:

New line[]New line[]New Line[] ...........


Cheers

are you sure your CEdit has style ES_MULTILINE?

You also want to use the combined characters &quot;\r\n&quot; for a line break.

Yes, I did set the ES_MULTILINE. And &quot;\r\n&quot; did not work either.

Thank you very much
