Default What's the secret on scroll bars in textbox

I have Wordwrap = False, Scrollbar = 2 for vertical scrollbar.
I don't get a scrollbar.
I even changed the Multiline setting from False to True. Still nothing.

I had the same problem getting one to show up for a userform, until I
learned about the Scrollbar height & width settings. But, those
settings aren't in there for textbox properties.

What else do I need to change to get a scrollbar in a textbox?
Thanks,
J.O.

Hi,

You need to set the properties,

WordWrap = True
MultiLine = True

And the actual text needs to extend beyond the internal height of the
textbox before the scroll bar will appear.

Cheers
Andy
