Title: Text with scroll bar
Post by: Andy on November 28, 2008, 12:45:24 AM

Hi Everyone,

I'm looking to use openwinow command and display some text in it - simple enough but I want to have a vertical scroll bar so that you can scroll down the text to read it. I've searched but I can't find an example can anyone help please.

Thanks.
Andy

How about using something like the RichEdit control in your window and enabling the vertical scrollbar? I would use the Dialog Editor to generate the code for the RichEdit control.

Look at the program Editor.eba in the Projects folder that came with EBasic.

It will do the task of scrolling text in a window.
