Its a kinda silly question, but how do you tell a TEdit or TMemo control to use a newline character properly? I've tried the usuals of \r, \n, 10, 13, etc. I need to programatically fill the control, and newlines will be important. I'm passing an AnsiString argument:

frmChat->memoChat->Text = s ;

Thanks.
 
Hmm, ya, ok, that works. So, we're doing it the long way...line by line.

Gets me going further in the right direction, though. Thank you.
 
in a for loop the code doesnt seem as long
 
Just use "\r\n"
and set the memo control WantReturns = false and Wordwrap = false
