How do I change the width and length of a SWT Text box? I am intending to
create a Text box that supports free text and multiple lines of text. I am
able to cater for the multiple lines by inserting SWT.MULTI, but how do I
increase the size of the text box?

Hi Daren,
I think you should look at the documentation for the layout you are
using on the Composite containing your textbox. The size is minly
decided by the layout data passed in textbox.setLayoutData. Otherwise,
you should have a look at the textbox.setSize() method.
