Just to further clarify, if I use:

TextBox1.Text = "test" & ControlChars.NewLine & "string"

in the form_load event, it works properly. But if I use:

Dim x As New com.ibm.machine.Service
TextBox1.Text = x.HelloWorld()

and have the helloworld method defined remotely as:

return "test" & ControlChars.NewLine & "string"

This causes the textbox1 to look like:

Hello World(BOX)string

However, if I do:
Dim x As New com.domain.machine.Service
RichTextBox1.Text = x.HelloWorld()

It looks correct with a line break.


OK, so make a little helper function that takes an array of Char and returns the ToString of the numeric values of the elements, then compare its output when passed the test string and x.HelloWorld(). Maybe the newline is different on the remote system, maybe it's getting mistranslated on the wire.
