[Update: The link to the TextBox class from the ASP.NET TextBox Web Server Control points to the Windows Forms TextBox, not the Web Controls TextBox. Balls!<\/b>]<\/p>\n
If you’re running into trouble when using the TextBox class in ASP.NET, the MultiLine property and the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK Documentation, it’s probably because the documentation is wrong. The documentation that ships with v1.1 says that you can use the ‘Multiline’ property of the TextBox<\/a> class (which is actually a property of the TextBoxBase<\/a> class) to toggle the TextMode property like this: \/\/ Set the Multiline property to true. \/\/ use the TextMode property and the TextBoxMode enumeration [Update: The link to the TextBox class from the ASP.NET TextBox Web Server Control points to the Windows Forms TextBox, not the Web Controls TextBox.

\nprivate void CreateMyMultilineTextBox() {
\n \/\/ Create an instance of a TextBox control.
\n TextBox textBox1 = new TextBox();<\/p>\n
\n textBox1.Multiline = true;
\n ....
\n}

\nIf you do what the documentation says, you’ll get a compiler error that says this:
\n
\nerror CS0117: 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox' does not contain a definition for 'Multiline'
\n<\/code>
\nSo instead, use the the TextBoxMode<\/a> enumeration and the TextMode property:
\n
\nprivate void CreateMyMultilineTextBox() {
\n \/\/ Create an instance of a TextBox control
\n TextBox textBox1 = new TextBox();<\/p>\n
\n textBox1.TextMode = TextBoxMode.MultiLine;
\n ....
\n}
\n<\/code>
