A ScrollBars that indicates whether a multiline text box control appears with no scroll bars, a horizontal scroll bar, a vertical scroll bar, or both. The default is ScrollBars.None.
Horizontal scroll bars will not be shown if the WordWrap property is set to true, regardless of the value of the ScrollBars property.

[Visual Basic]
Public Sub CreateMultilineTextBox() ' Create an instance of an TextBox control. Dim Text1 as TextBox Set Text1 = New TextBox() ' Set the Multiline property to True. Text1.Multiline = True ' Add vertical scroll bars to the TextBox control. Text1.Scrollbars = ScrollBars.Vertical ' Allow the RETURN key in the TextBox control. Text1.AcceptsReturn = True ' Allow the TAB key to be entered in the TextBox control. Text1.AcceptsTab = True ' Set WordWrap to True to allow text to wrap to the next line. Text1.WordWrap = True ' Set the default text of the control. Text1.Text = "Welcome!" End Sub
