Hi,

I am using Silverlight 2.0 & noticed that, there are no Multiline TextBox (i.e. textarea) control in it.
I also noticed that, there are no support for ScrollBar in TextBox.
So, is there any way to create a multiline textbox in silverlight 2.0?

Thanks for your response in advance.

Hi, I am able to mutliple lines. But, scroll bars are not coming (End user need to scroll with the help of up&down arrows), after keeping vertical and horizontal scroll bars as visible or auto.

Do any one suggest me how to get scroll bars, my code is as below

AcceptsReturn = "true" TextWrapping ="Wrap" Width="190" Height="40" IsReadOnly="True" Text="" x:Name="tblkMessage" Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="1" HorizontalAlignment="Left"/>

Thanks

Ashok

Try Like This

<TextBox x:Name="CurrentAddress" MaxLength="200" Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="1" TextWrapping="Wrap" AcceptsReturn="True" Width="250" Height="40"  HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Visible" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible"></TextBox>

you Just Remove ScrollViewer. and Just Give HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Visible" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible"

i think this will helps you .its working for me.
