How in God's name do I use this? When I put it next to my text field and put in the parameters I get a white, vertical line with no thumb or buttons. Macromedia's "Help" gives me a list of methods, but I don't think I need to use all this to have a simple scrollbar.

Thanks #982,456 Unfittoprint.
Here's what I thought was missing in the explanation. You have to make your text field scrollable. I never knew about this before. Right click on the text box and scroll down to "scrollable".
Now, I'd like to skin the graphics. I'm sure I'll post again.

I thought you could skin components by going into the symbol in the library. No?
I guess I'll have to author mine from scratch again.

I just made my first scrolling text box the other day. It was easy. I just used buttons and the and method thingies in action script. It might not be fancy enough for what your doing though.
Obviously ... listen to unfit over me.

I love the functionality, but just want to change the look of the buttons to what I've been using.
I'm a much better designer than programmer.
