Sending data from Arduino to Visual Basic

Hello,
I hope someone can help me in my project.

Well, I want to make a counter on Arduino; everytime a pushbutton is pressed, a variable will increment ++1. (I already can do this).

Then, I want to show this counter (number of pulses) in Visual Basic in a TextBox. (I already can do this also).

But the problem is, when the information is sent.

It appears like this in the TextBox:
-Number of hits:1
-Number of hits:2
-Number of hits:3
-Number of hits:4
-Number of hits:5
It keep jumping another line and another and another.

I don't want that. I want to show the amount of hits in a single line; in other words, uploading the same variable without skiping another line like the example above..

I don't know if I can do that.
