Add Linefeed Character to a textbox

Hi there.

How do you add a linefeed character to a textbox (in VB6). I have multiplelines set to true, and can add them myself, but when I do it with code, e.g.

Code:

Text1.Text = Text1.Text & chr(10) & "testing"

I get a funny character instead of a linefeed.

Thanks

in windows you need a carriage return (Cr) and a line feed (Lf)

Code:

Text1.Text = Text1.Text & vbCrLf & "testing"
