This is what you mean ?

Private Sub Form_Load()
    Text1.MultiLine = True
    Text1.ScrollBars = 2
End Sub

That doesn't work I get an error message when I try to preview something about read only?

I think the multiline property can only be set during the design, and not at run time.

You might also want to try Rich Text Boxes instead
