check textfield for scroll ?

• force

  Is there any way to check if a dynamic textfield needs to be scrolled in flash ?
  Im loading text from textfiles, and some texts are longer than others.
  I would like to be able to do something like this:

  if(text is longer, scroller needed){
  scroller._visible = true;
  }
  else{
  scroller._visible = false;};

  any suggestions ?

  cheers!
