Scroll bars in text box - how do you get them to work?
Posted: Tue Feb 04, 2014 12:57 pm
hi,
I have a need to add vertical scroll bars to a text box (read only box used to display search results). Because of the use of this box I cannot set it to a specific size and be sure it will display everything hence the scroll bars.
I have added this to the form, but it does nothing and I can't work out what is needed to get the scroll bar to make the data displayed actually scroll. Right now the indicator in the bar moves, but the data stays static.
I know it is going to be something obvious, but I think I've gone code blind.
Any suggestions?
