Setting the SelStart property to 0 should do it.
However, I can't recall off the top of my head whether or not setting
the SelStart property also scrolls the memo's display to keep the caret
visible.
If not then setting SelStart to 0 and THEN sending the EM_SCROLLCARET
message thusly:
Memo1.Perform(EM_SCROLLCARET, 0, 0);
should definitely do it.
