One approach is to read the file in probably using binary mode so that
I could get chunks for speed and replace any Chr$(10) with Chr$(13) &
Chr$(10) before placing in the text box.
or
If you use the same file over and over, I would create a new file and
copy the oldfile while replaceing the Chr$(10)'s with Chr$(13) &
Chr$(10) to a new file.
