>I need a way to display several lines of text on the screen. I would show enough for a small paragraph. I have tried a label, textbox, and editbox and each of these seem to have a length limitation. Is there way other than creating a seperate textbox for each line of text?

In addition of others suggestions take a look at Cetin Basoz class expandable editbox in Files classes/VCX section. It may be exactly what are you looking for.
