Sorry guys that it has taken me a while. Okay, well what I meant by
formatting is that I have a word and a series of definitions. The word is
indented, and the definitions are further indented. However, not really
indented, it is just spaces. But you guys said that will stay. But I have
gotten another question after running the program. Some of the definitions
wrap. They don't actually wrap, I need to set that, they like just go to the
very end of the line and then go to the next line. If that makes sense. But
My next question is can you set a margin in a textbox?
