Adding text to a richtext box and keeping vertical scroll bar at the bottom

[Jon]

If I add text to a rich text box, when there's too much to display, the vertical scroll bar stays at
the top. I'd like it to be at the bottom, so I can see the last item of text added. How do I do
this?

richTextBox1.Te xt += DateTime.Now.To String() + Environment.New Line;
richTextBox1.Se lectionStart = richTextBox1.Te xt.Length;
richTextBox1.Sc rollToCaret();

Sorry for the late reply Jeffrey, I was busy fixing more urgent things.
