Dynamic Windows Forms TextBox

Question

I am creating a TextBox dynamically and adding that in a TabPage which is itself also dynamically created.

But the problem is, the TextBox is not showing text formatting correcly.

For example: \\t and \\n are not reflected at all.

I have already set property Multiline to True. But again no improvement.

What to check for?

When you dynamically create the TextBox, make sure you set its MultiLine property to true (the default is false ). And if you want multiline text, you have to use \\r\\n - just \\n won't do it. \\t puts a Tab in correctly - maybe you're looking for something else?
