Scrolling within a Text Box

In VB.Net, if you click on an editable text box which is
too small to fully display its contents, the content are
right aligned (i.e. scrolled).
This is OK, however when you move away from the text box,
the display is not changed, i.e. the contents are not then
left aligned again so that the user sees the beginning of
the contents, not the end.
How do I change this programatically?

I'm not sure I understand your question completely, but try this:

TextBox1.SelectionStart = 0
TextBox1.SelectionLength = 0
