Text box that scrolls text

[JohnRChick]

Any ideas on how i could make a text box that would slowly scroll through the text in it?

Thanks

Thats when you know people are lazy lol. You have to consider scrolling for them.

Are you wanting it to scroll when text is added to it? Like a chat program? If so try this thread. There are a few options to try. If this won't work how do you want it to scroll?

like the text box already has tons of text in it.. when the user clicks a button it starts from the top and slowly scrolls to the end

Then you're going to want to use a timer.

Maybe every interval move the carat. If you can findout how many charactors per line you can move it that amount.
