Fred,

Just an untested guess:

In Init()

with this.object
   .Scrollbars = 3
endwith

>Can someone tell me the syntax to add a RichTextBox control to a coded form class?
>
>I can get the RichTextBox on the form and show it, but I can't set the ScrollBar property or anything else that falls under the Object reference, because they are read-only.
>
>DEFINE CLASS myForm AS FORM
>ENDDEFINE
>DEFINE CLASS rtb AS OLECONTROL
>oleclass = "RICHTEXT.RichTextCtrl.1"
>width = 300
>height = 300
>scrollbars = 3 && this creates a new property. I need the one under .Object.Scrollbars?????????/
>ENDDEFINE
>
>Thanks!
