    Darn scrollbars

    I have a text editor (like Niotepad) and I read the text using the file system object like this

    Dim fso As New FileSystemObject, fil As file, ts As TextStream
    Set fil = fso.GetFile("C:\world.txt")
    Set fil =ts.opeanAstextstream(ForReading)
    e = ts.ReadAll

    and so on, but if the text is larger than the textbox, i need a scrollbar and don't know how to put code in order to scroll the text. please help me. I'm sure my 'reading' code isn't good!
    To make a program or not to make a program... that is the question. Or to destroy your computer's monitor, that's a second question

    The TextBox control has a ScrollBars property which by default is set to None. Thats why your arent showing up . Set it to Horizontal, Vertical or Both and it will handle the rest for you, no coding required
