Its so simple.Use the folowing

code:

MsgBox " abcd abcd abcd abcd" & Chr(13) & "abckabcd "&chr(13)&".xxxxxxxxxxxxxx..........."

chr(13) functions like pressing Enter key from the key board.So ur text is in multiple lines now.

you can pretty much do what riju_sh02 said, but you could replace chr(13) with vbnewline. The constant is pretty much just a chr(10) and chr(13) (crlf, you can use vbcrlf too)

and just to explain

vbcrlf----stands for---VisualBasicCarriageReturnLineFeed.

even though a bit long, i hope that is quiet easy to undestand .
