  Assuming you're putting controls on the panel, just set the focus to the last control.

  Sorry perhaps I should have listed a separate thread - it was just that someone else seemed to have answered my question when attempting to answer the above question so I thought I would be better phrasing mine here. The top question has already been answered.

  Loop over all controls on your panel, and see what control is most to the right and to the bottom of the panel, then for this control call ScrollControlIntoView(control).

  If you are wanting to automatically scroll to the end of a multi-line textbox after lines have been added to it at the bottom, try this:
  
  textBox1.Select(textBox1.TextLength, 0);
  textBox1.ScrollToCaret();

  This is precisely what I am wanting to do, but I can't get your code to work.

  My code fragment is included below.

  What I want is for the textbox to contain the reams of info (don't know if it matters but includes newlines) stored in my arrayofoptions object - but to display only the final 3 lines or so (but in such a way that if anyone wants to scroll up they can). Any help greatfully received. Thanks

  Dim pretext As TextBox = New TextBox()

  pretext.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(5, 10)

  pretext.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(510, 50)

  pretext.ReadOnly = True

  pretext.Multiline = True

  pretext.ScrollBars() = System.Windows.Forms.ScrollBars.Vertical

  pretext.Text = arrayofoptions(whichquestionimon).PreContext

  pretext.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.None

  pretext.Select(pretext.TextLength, 0)

  pretext.ScrollToCaret()

  groupBox1.Controls.Add(pretext)

  If the content are individual controls then you can use these 2 methods to bring the control to view.

  mycontrol.BringToFront() // selects the control
  mypanel.ScrollControlIntoView(mycontrol) // scrolls to the control
