I'm writing a program that has two text boxes and a RichTextBox. The program will have users input data into multiple text boxes and when I press the "insert" button the text does get inserted into the RichTextBox, but when I click another insert button, the text from that textbox overwrites the RichTextBox's current text. How would I prevent this.

Thanks for your help.

I need to assess the problem, are we trying to get text from both textbox1 and textbox2 into the richtextbox1?

What you need here is appending the text inside the 2 textboxes into the richtextbox each time the button is clicked. To append text use RTB.text &= "New text to append" OR RTB.AppendText("New text to append")

@Deadlock: Thats exactly what I needed, it works excellent!

One more thing, I would like the text to be inserted below the current entry. I suppose I can do that with vbNewLine?

Thanks for all your help!

yes Exactly, RTB.Text &= vbNewLine & "New TexT"
