I just threw together a new userform with text box, set the latter's
properties as you specified, and of course got vertical scrollbars after a
couple lines of text were typed in. Does this experiment fail when you do
the same from scratch? If not, what happens if you delete the text box and
try a new one?

Using MS Office 2003, I have a userform with a button and a textbox. The
textbox is set for multiline, wordwrap, and a vertical scrollbar.

The scrollbar will not show no matter how much text I pump into the
textbox.

What could cause this?

Also, what is the maximum number of characters that can be put into a
textbox? Amazingly, this info is not readily available! I would assume
it
is the same as the maximum value of a long integer. Where is this info
found?

The absent scrollbar is my mani problem!!!! Help!!!
