c# line breaks in a text box

I've been trying to put line breaks in a text box ("\n") but the breaks come
through as boxes in the program. I have the text box set to multline though.
Is there any way to get around this? It doesn't necessarily have to be a
text box, just anything that allows you to copy text off it. A text box
would be easiest though. Do you use something besides "\n" to insert a
break?

Thanks.

"\r\n" or Environment.NewLine.
