I would like to use a Richview as a display for a chat program.

The appearance of the messages is similar of the MSN Messenger, with the

following format:

-----------------------

John says:

Hello !!

Mary says:

How are you

John says:

Fine, and you ??

-----------------------

I use the method richview1.AddTextNL to add a line:

richview1.AddTextNL('John says:', stylenumber, -1, stylenumber);

richview1.AddTextNL('Hello !!', stylenumber, -1, stylenumber);

richview1.FormatTail;

e thus for ahead ...

The problem is that when occurs autoscroll, the line of the messages is dislocated

for top, being thus:

------------------------

John says:Hello !!

Mary says:How are you

John says:Fine, and you ??

------------------------

I need help urgently to solve this problem.
