Line too long

[Darkone]

hey guys, i was trying put a really long line of text into a textbox (in code), but when i tried to put more in it automatically wrapped to the next line. how to i make it so the text on the next line will be a continuation of the text on the first line. (i dont mind if they're on two seperate lines in the actual textbox.)

here's my code:

Private Sub construct_Click ()

[LINE ONE] RSSFEED.Text = "<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""UTF-8""?><rss xmlns:itunes="" http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd"" version=""2.0"" > <channel> <title> " + chtitle.Text + " </title> <description> " + chdescription.T ext + "</description> <link>" + chwebsite.Text + "</link> <language>" + languagecountry .Text + "</language> <copyright>Copy right 2006</copyright> <lastBuildDate> Fri, 23 Jun 2006 11:30:00 -0400</lastBuildDate> <pubDate>Fri, 23 Jun 2006 11:30:00 -0400</pubDate> <docs>http://blogs.law.harva rd.edu/tech/rss</docs> <webMaster>" + email + "</webMaster> <itunes:author> " + name + "</itunes:author> <itunes:subtitl e></itunes:subtitle > <itunes:summary ></itunes:summary> <itunes:owner>< itunes:name>" + name + "</itunes:name> <itunes:email >" + email + "</itunes:email> </itunes:owner> <itunes:explici t>No</itunes:explicit > <itunes:categor y text=""Technolo gy""> <itunes:categor y text=""Podcasti ng""/> </itunes:category > <item> <title>" + podtitle + "</title> <link>" + chwebsite.Text + "</link> " *THIS WAS ALL ON ONE LINE*
[LINE TWO] <guid>soundfile </guid>"


End Sub

Hi there,

well.. set the multiline properties to true.. give it a try.. good luck my fren..

multiline isnt the problem, the compiler just wont take the line. two ways to fix that:
1) use the _. the underscore tells vb that the next line is also part of this line. example:
RSSFEED.Text="w hen i get home i talk on the phone and eat food and watch television _
and walk my dog and do homework and make sure i dont have any run on _
sentences because that would just be terrible gammar on my part and i wouldnt _
want people to think i talked badly, y'know?"

2) use the & sign to append stings. 'and' tells the compiler to 'stick' this string on the other of that string. just like string=string1 & string2. this is the less favorable solution but if proformance doesnt matter then:

dim finalstring as string
finalstring = "when i get home i talk on the phone and eat food and watch television"
finalstring = finalstring & " and walk my dog and do homework and make sure i "
finalstring = finalstring & "dont have any run on sentences because that would just "
finalstring = finalstring & "be terrible gammar on my part and i wouldnt want people"
finalstring = finalstring & " to think i talked badly, y'know?"
RSSFEED.Text=fi nalstring
