Scrolling Text

How can i make the text in a text box/label scroll?

Put some text in a label and add the following code to a timer with interval set to 100

VB Code:

Label1.Caption = Right$(Label1.Caption, Len(Label1.Caption) - 1) & Left$(Label1.Caption, 1)

Mega.

VB Code:

'Put a Timer and a Picture Box on the form
'Set the Timer Interval to 3
'Add the following code to the Timer1_Timer event
 
Const MyStr = "Hello, this is a test string"
 
Static TopText As Integer
Static TopLoaded As Boolean
 
Dim Speed As Integer
Dim NotShowing As Long
 
'speed is one pixel per tick
Speed = Screen.TwipsPerPixelY
 
If Not TopLoaded Then
    'only set this once
    TopText = Picture1.ScaleHeight
    TopLoaded = True
End If
'clear picture box text
Picture1.Cls
 
'center the text about to be displayed
Picture1.CurrentY = TopText
Picture1.CurrentX = (Picture1.ScaleWidth \ 2) - (Picture1.TextWidth(MyStr) \ 2)
 
'display text
Picture1.Print MyStr
 
'if text has moved past the top of the picture box
'then start scrolling text from the bottom
NotShowing = (TopText + Picture1.TextHeight(MyStr))
If NotShowing < 0 Then
    TopText = Picture1.ScaleHeight
Else
    'else continue moving text up
    TopText = TopText - Speed
End If

Thanks hack. The mega-mans example was great, don't get me wrong, but this was just what i was looking for.

is there any way of scrolling multi lined messgaes?

VB Code:

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
'Put a Timer and a Picture Box on the form
'Set the Timer Interval to 3
'Add the following code to the Timer1_Timer event
 
Dim MyStr As String
 
MyStr = "Here is comes to save the day..." & vbCrLf
MyStr = MyStr & Space(15) & "Good ole Hack is on the way.!"
 
Static TopText As Integer
Static TopLoaded As Boolean
 
Dim Speed As Integer
Dim NotShowing As Long
 
'speed is one pixel per tick
Speed = Screen.TwipsPerPixelY
 
If Not TopLoaded Then
    'only set this once
    TopText = Picture1.ScaleHeight
    TopLoaded = True
End If
'clear picture box text
Picture1.Cls
 
'center the text about to be displayed
Picture1.CurrentY = TopText
Picture1.CurrentX = (Picture1.ScaleWidth \ 2) - (Picture1.TextWidth(MyStr) \ 2)
 
'display text
Picture1.Print MyStr
 
'if text has moved past the top of the picture box
'then start scrolling text from the bottom
NotShowing = (TopText + Picture1.TextHeight(MyStr))
If NotShowing < 0 Then
    TopText = Picture1.ScaleHeight
Else
    'else continue moving text up
    TopText = TopText - Speed
End If
End Sub
