Hey, does anyone know how to scroll a RichEdit control so that newly added text is visible at the bottom of the control? At the moment, i''m scrolling it down one line for every ''\n'' i find, but if a line wraps round (if its a long line), it takes up more than one line. Taaa

i use this:

  
// little trick to get the last line written on the bottom of the control

SendMessage ( WindowHandle, EM_SETSEL, (WPARAM)(INT)60000, (LPARAM)(INT)60000);
SendMessage ( WindowHandle, EM_SCROLLCARET, (WPARAM)0, (LPARAM)0 );

basically i use the fact that if i pass a position thats higher then the char count (the 60000) the caret gets automatically set to the last position, so then i just scroll there.
it''s a bit of a hack, but it works
