Doesn't the Text Box have a size attribute to it? Anyway, to get a fixed default, always double click on the text box icon on the tool bar while creating it, instead of single clicking and drawing one.

I don't know about VB 6 but in the higher versions (.NET) you can copy a text box and paste as many you like and their names will change normally like you make one by one.

If you want it through code then try this

add two text box to the form and in the form load event use the following code. I hope you understand the code.

Code:

Private Sub Form_Load()

Dim h As Integer
Dim w As Integer

h = 50
w = 1500

Text1.Height = h
Text2.Height = h

Text1.Width = w
Text2.Width = w

End Sub
