>I have a form that uses an ASCII text file to create a comma delimited text file after a bunch of processes and database work. On my final page, I want to provide a button that will allow the user to "view" either of these ascii text files. The file might be wider than the screen so therefore I want a horizontal scroll bar as well. Neither file will be edited using this, just viewed.

You can play around

APPEND FROM mytext.txt ...

command, with DELIMITED or SDF clauses.
You can prepare the cursor for it, append data and show in the read-only grid.
