@ ID ... MULTILINE EDIT
Use a multi-line edit control in a dialog
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Syntax
#include "windows.ch"
#include "topclass.ch"   --or--   #define  NO_C4WCLASS
#include "commands.ch"
@ ID  <nId>  MULTILINE EDIT
     [ <clauses> ]

Arguments
See the generic @ ID ... <ControlType> command for details of
the <clauses> and/or parameters allowed.

Description
This command lets you use a multi-line edit control (similar
to a memo field) in a dialog.  There is also the @ ID ... EDIT
command for single-line edits.  For an edit control more like
a Clipper GET, see @ ID ... GET.  The TEXT (or INITIAL) clause
can be used to pre-load a string into an edit control.

Common styles include ES_MULTILINE, ES_WANTRETURN (so that the
user can press Enter instead of Control+Enter at the end of a
line), ES_AUTOHSCROLL, ES_AUTOVSCROLL, WS_BORDER and
WS_TABSTOP.

See the generic @ ID ... <ControlType> command for more
information.
