    Question RichTextBox - Scroll vs. page issue

    Hello all.

    I made this great property that (seems) to work as expected:
    Code:
        <Browsable(False), DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Hidden)> _
        Public Property ScrollPosition() As Point
            Get
                SendMessage(Me.Handle, EM_GETSCROLLPOS, 0, ScrollPosition)
            End Get
            Set(ByVal value As Point)
                SendMessage(Me.Handle, EM_SETSCROLLPOS, 0, value)
            End Set
        End Property
    But when I need to scroll the vertical bar to a value higher than 65536 it starts to behave the wrong way. For example, this causes the control to jump up:
    Code:
    ScrollPosition = ScrollPosition
    EDIT

    But how to convert it to work with my code...
    Code:
        Private Function CorrectScrollPosY(ByVal Index As Long, ByVal lngNewScrollPos As Long) As Long
            If (lngPixelCntY(Index) > 65535) Then
                CorrectScrollPosY = CLng(CDbl(lngNewScrollPos) * lngLineHeightPixels * rtbDiff(Index).LineCount / 65535.0#)
            Else
                CorrectScrollPosY = lngNewScrollPos
            End If
        End Function
    Plus I can't scroll to a line; it must scroll by pixel. (to prevent a strange shaking when typing)

    EDIT

    Ok discovered the point structure contains two UShort values, not two integers at all!
    I'll see if a custom structure works out. < Does not work out; same issue; system uses two UShorts :/

    Thought of using the SCROLLINFO structure, but that API doesn't update the control...
    OK I'm out of luck here. Any help greatly appreciated.
