Hmm this seemed like an interesting thing to implement so I took a crack at it. From some goggling it doesn't seem like there is a straight forward way to "tell" the Textbox to scroll itself to the end. So I thought of it a different way. All framework controls in WPF have a default Style/ControlTemplate, and judging by the looks of the Textbox control there must be a ScrollViewer inside which handles the scrolling. So, why not just work with a local copy of the default Textbox ControlTemplate and programmaticlly get the ScrollViewer. I can then tell the ScrollViewer to scroll its Contents to the end. Turns out this idea works.
Here is the test program I wrote, could use some refactoring but you can get the idea by looking at it:
Here is the XAML:
<Window x:Class="WpfApplication3.MainWindow" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:WpfApplication3="clr-namespace:WpfApplication3"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
<Window.Resources>
<!--The default Style for the Framework Textbox-->
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="DisabledForegroundBrush" Color="#888" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="DisabledBackgroundBrush" Color="#EEE" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="WindowBackgroundBrush" Color="#FFF" />
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="SolidBorderBrush" Color="#888" />
<ControlTemplate x:Key="MyTextBoxTemplate" TargetType="{x:Type TextBoxBase}">
<Border x:Name="Border" CornerRadius="2" Padding="2" Background="{StaticResource WindowBackgroundBrush}"
BorderBrush="{StaticResource SolidBorderBrush}" BorderThickness="1">
<ScrollViewer Margin="0" x:Name="PART_ContentHost" />
</Border>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="False">
<Setter TargetName="Border" Property="Backgrou
